    You can be flippant about the nature of first past the post voting systems if you like but it’s not a useful contribution to the discussion. If you want to be POTUS you run as an R or a D and Bernie is not an R. That does not mean there are not R voters who like his policies.

      If you want to be POTUS you run as an R or a D and Bernie is not an R.

      Did you miss the part where I said he ran for the Democrat nomination, twice?

      That does not mean there are not R voters who like his policies.

      I never said otherwise, but how does that help him win a presidential election?

      My whole point is that Bernie could not win a presidential election in the US. How has anything you’ve said disproven that?
