The Democratic Party establishment will not allow US presidential candidate Bernie Sanders to win the party’s nomination for the White House because of his revolutionary proposals, a US political analyst and peace activist says.

“The reality is that even with [Hillary] Clinton dropping out, the DNC would never permit Sanders to be the nominee, regardless of what his supporters want,” said Myles Hoenig, who is running for Congress as a Green Party candidate.

“They’ll find a ‘safe’ candidate and throw bones at Sanders and his people, hoping to mollify them,” Hoenig told Press TV on Sunday.

“Right now the Sanders positions are taking a beating in the platform committee,” he added.

“Although some issues are being accepted, many of those that are most contentious, but supported by large percentages, are being rejected. They would include a minimum wage of $15 tied to inflation (even though that is still not a living wage); rights of Palestinians, acknowledging Israel to be an occupying country and calling out the illegal settlements; and a universal, Medicare for all, single payer health care system.”

Sanders is continuing to raise funds for his presidential campaign despite the fact that presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton essentially secured the nomination last month.

Sanders’ campaign emailed several fundraising requests to supporters on Thursday, ahead of the Federal Election Committee’s final fundraising deadline on July 15.

Clinton became the presumptive Democratic nominee as she garnered the last round of delegates and super-delegates up for grabs in primary elections in New Jersey and California in June.

However, Sanders has persistently refused to concede the race or endorse Clinton.

The US senator from Vermont has repeatedly stated that he will do everything to defeat Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Clinton is under investigation by the FBI for using a private email server installed at her home in New York state to conduct official US State Department business.

An unplanned meeting between former US president Bill Clinton and Attorney General Loretta Lynch could further undermine Hillary Clinton's efforts to convince voters to place their trust in her.

On Friday, Lynch acknowledged that her 30-minute private meeting with Hillary Clinton’s husband on Monday at the Phoenix airport was a mistake that had cast a shadow over the email investigation and contributes to a perception of bias.

The episode raises the risk that voters will see the former secretary of state again as part of an enduring power couple that receives special treatment and privileges.
