Current Bernie and Bust followers are discussing a Bernie and Bust 2.0 approach and how to make a relevant case for the 2020 election. Many have attributed rampant media bias as part of their motivation to carry on their philosophies. Another frequently expressed concern is that imminent climate catastrophe is a timely reason why they cannot accept a corporate controlled media to determine so much of our political process. At a time when scientists believe we may have as little as 18 months for governments to determine a timeline for major climate related changes, many Bernie supporters mimic the beliefs of California constituent Elizabeth D., who say she is “concerned about Biden’s political stance on issues like healthcare” and Warren’s “lack of a plan” equal to Sander’s comprehensive Green New Deal. Elizabeth Warren has stated that she will use corporate and super PAC funds, should she be the chosen candidate in the 2020 presidential election. Warren recently received pushback for hiring a lobbyist to head up her campaign directly after declaring a war on lobbying.

If you are a supporter of the movement, consider yourself similar to 25k members in one Facebook Bernie or Bust group, who believe Bernie has the integrity to take on the top 1% and create fundamental change. Meanwhile, if you are a Sanders supporter who believes that anyone to the left of the political spectrum should vote blue in the general election, lest they be responsible for Trump receiving another 4 year term, you might want to encourage your non-voter friends and family to vote. The current count for non-voters ranges as high as 100 million in the 2016 U.S. election.  Sanders has continually polled as the most likely choice to defeat Trump in the general election.
