Fantastic article, thank you for writing it! I think the only point you may be incorrect on is that I am not convinced that Bernie will not go 3rd party. For starters, he has said many times he will do anything he can to prevent an Republican president. He is smart enough to know that Trump is going to beat Hillary, without question. Therefore he must run. And secondly, even if he doesn’t win 3rd party, his presence in the general will undermine Trump more than Hillary and increase her chances of winning. Her base is less fluid than his, and Bernie will pull many anti-establishment voters as well as working class voters away from Trump. Of course, there is risk associated with him running, but Bernie has never struck me as a coward. In fact, if I had to bet on any one person having the courage to breakthrough our broken two-party system, it would be Bernie.
