Comment by niknar 6/13/2016 4:24 a.m.:
There are quite a number of Republicans who would vote for Bernie. But half the independents would vote for Bernie, & they form nearly half the electorate. So with Bernie’s slightly under half of the Democrats, altogether just under 40% of the US electorate prefers Bernie, while neither Clinton nor Trump can reach 30%. A 3rd Party Sanders run, accepting the offer of the Green Party to head their ticket, would be a landslide victory for Bernie.
