70. Sanders supporters want presidency while rejecting the democratic party

As a democrat I will support whomever wins the democratic primary.

You act as if when Bernie is elected he does not need democratic legislators in Congress to get his agenda passed? Last time I looked the legislative branch of Congress was wholly controlled by Republicans. You think Republicans are going to lift a finger to do anything for a progressive agenda? You are fooling yourselves. Without progressive democrats elected a Bernie Sanders presidency can accomplish little to nothing. His agenda will stall from day one. Just look at the struggles Obama had initially even with democratic majorities in the beginning. Now Republicans have a virtual super-majority in the House.

So you want Bernie elected but without the funding other democratic candidates will need to get elected and get the job done? You want the democratic party to embrace and unite around a self-described democratic socialist as a means to an end to elect ONLY Bernie but not other democrats? If that is the case, then I think Bernie should have run as an independent and all of you who hate the democratic party should follow him on that independent run! But he didn't choose to run as an independent because you and I know he couldn't win as an independent. So is it a self-serving preference to use the democratic party apparatus for to run for president but not work for the democratic party's gain as a whole? I have to say this smacks me as being quite hypocritical and short-sighted.

And by the way, I don't buy the diversionary narrative and excuse that Bernie is not fund raising for the DNC because he has not yet maxed out contributions from his personal donors for his campaign. I don't know why he chose not to concurrently fund raise for both the DNC and his campaign, but the campaign fully capable of fund raising for both his campaign and the DNC if it chooses. I find it interesting that when there is any criticism or complaint of the tactics used by Bernie's campaign, somehow the response by Bernie supporters is to point the finger of blame or accusation at Hillary's campaign (e.g. her fundraising has maxed out with personal so that is why she raised money for the DNC, or, Hillary bears some responsible for the data breach initiated by Bernie's campaign). Answer this question: Does the Sanders campaign believe it has a duty to help get other democrats elected? We need democrats down ticket to get elected along with that democratic president.
I will tell you this, a Sanders presidency cannot be successful without democrats in office behind him. Not seeing that is delusional and irrational.
