Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumsanders resolve not to accept his loss will more than likely effect any changes he would like to
see happen... I think the backlash will be so severe that many of his ideas will be tossed. I think after Novemeber, no matter if hillary or trump wins...he will be kicked off all committees in the senate unless he caucuses with the conservatives....which maybe that is his goal in the first place....and reward??
pretty much the end of sanders and the national limelight unless he gets a job with foxnews

He will charge five figures for his speeches (like $90k) so he can claim not to be charging "outrageous" fees like Hillary but he will be doing many of these engagements. He wants and needs the money to leave an estate to his and Jane's offspring. He doesn't fool me for one moment.
If you examine his first 50 years of eligibility for gainful employment you will see what I mean. He is basically a grifter, and state welfare recipient. His only meaningful salaries have come from public service jobs. He may be fooling the rest of the world but not me.
