Political Factoid

Bernie Sanders was always
a party of one.
  • He was an Independent, not a
    Democrat, in the U.S. Senate.
    He only caucused with the
    Democrats because he had
    no caucus in his party of one.
  • Sanders never said he was a
    Democrat, even when he was
    running in the Democratic primary.
    In fact, whenever pressed,
    he would only say he was
    "running as a Democrat"
    and that he was a
    "Democratic Socialist."
  • Sanders never had a party
    organization when he ran for
    president.
    Sanders never raised a
    dime for anyone else.
  • He raised lots of money during his
    presidental primary campaign.
    The money came from many,
    many individual people, but
    only went for one person: 
    Bernie Sanders.
