Shaking fists at the sky!

43. You fail to understand

This isn't an election where popular vote wins. It's a nomination where party leaders are given a voice in who gets elected to represent their party.

It should be little surprise that officials are hesitant to endorse a carpetbagger and constant historic critic of the Democratic party, and are unwilling to cede complete control to a process that frequently allows Republicans to intervene.

Also to the point, when Bernie runs in his own party, he can create the rules as he wishes. Bernie decided to run as a Democrat, and agreed to the rules. He doesn't get to whine about it now, or claim he didn't understand the rules. If he didn't read it or wasn't clear, he should have been before he changed parties and threw his hat into the ring.

To date, he's made very little effort in amassing superdelegates, a part of the process for forty years. That's his failing and his fault.
