3. Nader had devolved into someone who just wanted attention, the rest of us be damned.

So, I guess the answer is yes.

The difference is that when all is said and done, I think the primaries are going to mostly fade away by the time November rolls around, and Sanders won't have the chance to be a Nader. The public will have had a few months to contemplate the possibility of President Donald Trump by then, and I don't think Sanders will be much more than an afterthought.

The ironic thing is that if he truly wants to be a voice and to help affect change, by far his best option would be to support Hillary wholeheartedly and work his ass off to get a bunch of Democrats elected. He's shown no signs of having any intention of doing either.
