(179,996 posts)You do know that Sanders had zero chance of being the nominee. Sanders did very poorly with key groups in the Democratic coalition which is why he had no chance of being the nominee. African American and Latino voters did not support Sanders. The only group where Sanders did well was white upper class voters which is why Sanders never had a chance of being the nominee. The DNC had zero to do with the fact that Sanders was unpopular with African American and Latino voters.
Again, you are ignoring the math. After the Super Tuesday primaries, Clinton had a delegate lead that Sanders never over came. It was almost mathematically impossible for Sanders to make up that difference in the real world. Your claims about the DNC are really silly but funny. Math plays a large role in the determination of the nominee and Sanders never had a chance. The DNC had nothing to do with the math or the fact that Sanders lacked the support of key groups in the Democratic coaltion.
In other words, I am denying your so-called facts with something called math.
