Not just that, she went on to work in his administration. The 2008 primary campaign was every bit as acrimonious as this one. Sanders will tow the party line. As a self proclaimed socialist and populist, he has little choice other than to unite behind the party & its nominee. Will he continue doing everything he can publicly and privately to push his agenda upon Clinton? I think that's a certainty.

To me, the more interesting question is what will happen to Sanders after the general election. I cannot foresee Clinton would chose him as her running mate. So will he just return to being a senator and sort of a party elder who tries to push the democrats leftward? Or will he be asked to be in a possible Clinton cabinet?
That would be interesting .They will bury the hatchet with all the things they said and team up. Atlease he will get the VP position and his voters will be alittle happier and vote for her instead of voting for a 3 party and Mr Trump. She could offer him a position in her cabinet.Stuff between them was not bad as Mr Trump and his 16 or 17 opponents .Of course lets see what will happen at the DNC convention.
