This petition requests the President to endorse Senator Bernie Sanders as the rightful Democratic nominee for President. As such, honoring this petition would prevent the continuation of a Clinton political dynasty and would galvanize support for Senator Sanders. Senator Sanders remains the only potential candidate on either side of the ballot that would be honorable and selfless.
A response to this petition could potentially clarify Senator Sanders's position on "continuing the policies of President Obama's administration." An endorsement, or an acknowledgment that Senator Sanders's proposals are the natural outgrowth of progress during the Obama presidency, would quash the misleading argument that Mr. Sanders intends to erase the progressive gains of the present administration.
