Jeff Weaver, Sanders campaign manager, said on the call that their campaign chose not to compete in eight of the 32 states that have held primaries or caucuses so far. Weaver identified Texas, Alabama, Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Georgia and Louisiana as the states where they didnt mount a challenge to Clinton, who swept all of the Southern contests; he said the Sanders campaign did not broadcast television advertisements in those eight states or have a big campaign presence.
Almost all of Secretary Clintons delegate lead come from states where she faced little or no competition, said Tad Devine, Sanders senior campaign strategist. Her grasp now on the nomination is almost entirely on the basis of victories in states where Bernie Sanders did not compete.
See, they made poor decisions, which is why they are losing. Sanders was not well served by those two who discounts African Americans, a huge part of the Democratic Party's electorate?
You can't re-write history, at least history that recent.
