Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) “has a message for his fellow progressives: Why don’t you shed the Democratic label and run as an independent, the way he does?,” the New York Times reports.
Said Sanders: “If there’s any hope for the Democratic Party, it is that they’re going to have to reach out — open the doors and let working-class people in, let working-class leadership come into the party. If not, people will be running as independents, I think, all over this country.”
