Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders said in an interview broadcast Friday that he would wait to see what Hillary Clinton includes in her platform before deciding how actively to campaign for her in the fall if she is the party’s nominee.

The senator from Vermont, who has vowed to stay in the race until the Democratic convention, was asked by Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC whether he would try to persuade his young supporters to back Clinton in the same fashion that she supported President Obama after losing the nomination to him in 2008.

1. Good for Bernie. Stick with your core beliefs.

[Duckhunter935]

2. Not surprising

As she will evolve back to the right and abandon the positions she borrowed from him.

4. this is what I expect

3. Bernie has campaigned on issues.

I agree. The platform is vital. If clinton can incorporate many of these issues into the party platform it will make a HUGE difference on whether or not many of us can campaign for her. Ignoring these issues will fuel the continuing movement and reduce the chance of a peaceful merger of energies.

5. Good. Someone has to stand up when she shifts right again

God knows it'll be met with a slew of charges it's hate speach.

7. He continues with his holier than thou routine.

Screw you Bernie.

8. No. Bernie is not "preparing" for a disastrous turn of events. He said, "before deciding."

He was asked a question and basically did not answer it.

9. I do not want Sanders to campaign for Clinton. I want him to endorse and go away or work to get out

the vote or some positive action. But, I do not want Sanders to campaign.... at all.
