7. He should have apologized for NV supporters' behavior

I live in Illinois. I voted for Sanders with two reservations: 1) He didn't substantiate in detail how much his plans would cost, and 2) I was afraid that if he won, he would be pulverized as an extremist.

Be it as it may, one of the main reason I voted for Sanders is his idealism.

Some of his supporters acted like hooligans and criminals. This needed to be addressed. He should have apologized for their behavior and stated that they did not at all represent his campaign. He should have clearly asked these people to stop.

Also, as it is clear that he's not going to win the nomination, he should 1) campaign on his ideals, and 2) go after Trump.
