VT-SEN: Sanders to run as an independent in 2018

[DFW]

20. Either Sanders is right, or the State of Vermont is right

Results of the Vermont Democratic primary last year, as per the New York Times:

Democratic Primary

Bernie Sanders won Vermont, according to A.P.
Candidates Vote Pct. Delegates
Bernie Sanders 115,863 86.1% 16
Hillary Clinton 18,335 13.6 —
Martin O'Malley 279 0.2 —
Rocky De La Fuente 94 0.1

Of the Democrats running in the Democratic primary in the State of Vermont, the winner was Bernie Sanders.
And now Sanders claims, "I am an independent and I have always run in Vermont as an independent"

Except when he didn't, that is.

Now, I don't care if he runs as the candidate of the Bull Moose Party, and of COURSE we all prefer having him in the Senate over some Republican. But I wish he wouldn't make ridiculous blanket statements like that when the one time he launched a high profile presidential campaign, he did NOT run in Vermont as an independent.
