re: #539 Bill and Opus for 2016!

Yep. However, I’m getting a bad feeling about my nightmare scenario all of a sudden.
Say the Republican convention ends up being contested - and Trump ragequits to run as an independent.
Now, let’s imagine Sanders getting a close-but-no-cigar primary run, and HE decides to run as an independent as well (which could feasibly happen if he doesn’t get serious platform concessions).
A four-way race would potentially mean that the race is decided by Congress because of the absolute majority rule.

I have a lot of confidence that Bernie will not run as an independent. You have to remember that making a sudden, last minute decision in the Summer to run as an independent means you won’t be able to get on the ballot in a lot of states. That’s why Bloomberg is going to decide on an independent run in the next couple of weeks.
