3. The Greens already have Jill Stein, and her offer to share the stage is just grandstanding.

Her ego is way too big to allow that to ever happen, plus I doubt Sanders would accept the VP slot.

Johnson got 1% in 2012 and looks to be on pace for that in 2016. He's also a conservative - if Sanders supporters won't vote for Hillary because she's too far right, they should flat-out ignore Johnson. But then, some of them were Paul fans, so who knows.

I don't see either as much of a threat.

Many of BS supporters don't really give a damn about who is too far right. They just hate Hillary. Jitter65 Jun 2016 #4

True, but I don't think that translates to votes for Johnson. I think they'll just stay home. TwilightZone Jun 2016 #6
