In reply to the discussion: Sanders will not immediately endorse Biden: MSNBC [View all]The Magistrate

He is a stiff-necked old bird, who has difficulty with political realities.
The concession is sufficient endorsement.
His most devoted followers will shift without missing a beat to denouncing Sanders as a sell-out who has betrayed the 'Bernie' movement. He has never been able to exercise leadership, and his endorsement really is not worth much in consequence.
"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed.
