The Clinton Campaign with every advantage in name recognition, media access, DNC support, DWS support and having run 3 presidential campaigns has failed to put away a candidate with limited media access and the DNC working against him.

part of the "why" there is Sanders has run the best ads of the 2016 campaign as confirmed by independent ad biz polls:

Out of the 152 television and digital ads run by presidential candidates or independent super PACs since the middle of July last year, Sanders’ Dec. 28 spot, "Social Security," scored the highest aggregated total across more than half-a-dozen metrics like watchability, relevance and credibility as determined by a politically and demographically balanced panel of 500 people.

Here are the top-ranked 2016 presidential campaign ads as determined by Ace Metrix:

Mixed Field

"Social Security," Bernie 2016. Ace Score: 550
"Real Change (Revised)," Bernie 2016. Ace Score: 532
