Either a purist who thinks Bernie's VP pick is an establishment/corporatist shill because they're slightly to his right, or someone rabidly anti-Bernie who blames him and all of his supporters (even the majority who voted for Hillary in the GE) and wants "revenge."

There will always be people who don't believe Bernie is strong enough on fighting climate change, as well as people who oppose all forms of interventionism and drone warfare.

James Monroe.

Actually no, James Monroe and Landslide Lyndon would probably vote for Trump if Satan Sanders was nominated.

Generally an extreme left-wing purist.

Or Ajamu Baraka. That guy was f***ing nuts.

Next up: a voter who votes Libertarian over Bill Weld

And a voter who votes Constitution Party ticket over Trump

What mainstream politician does the American Solidarity Party get?

I fully expect at least a few will support the Green Party because Sanders won't support BDS or Reparations or some other inane reason like that.

I'm actually hoping the Green ticket attacks Bernie furiously if he's nominated, it would discredit that stupid and worthless party forever. Imagine running on the line of a party that's actually arguing that there are no differences between Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

A person who identifies as radical left but isn't very smart or coherent in their ideology.

Someone who has been an activist in the Green Party for years.

Most people who think Bernie isn't radical though would also think the Greens aren't radical enough.

Most people who think Bernie isn't radical enough would vote for the PSL, not the Greens.

From my previous encounters with Green Party folks in real life, I suspect that the first two lines you describe are kind of the same person.

A basement dweller with no real life experiences who thinks the two major parties are essentially the same because he read so on some edgy reddit page.

Actually a lot of people involved in the Green Party tend to buy into pseudoscience and kooky conspiracy theories that people who are hard left simply don't. Look at Ajamu Baraka. So likely someone who doesn't like that Bernie isn't going to "investigate" vaccines or fluoridation or try to uncover the "truth" about 9/11. I fully expect the 2020 Green ticket to at least virtue signal to this type of stuff, they probably won't go all out anti-vaxx or 9/11 "truther" but will say things like "there's a lot of unanswered questions about vaccines/9-11".

Also possible that the Green voters will consider "Bashar al-Assad is a bad guy but the US should not intervene" (basically Bernie's position) to be a neocon imperialist one and refuse to support anyone who doesn't instead basically say "We must stand with our brother Assad in his noble struggle against western imperialism."
