5. I have felt he missed his window

For his limitations, the last Presidential was his best shot, a lot smaller D field, he pretty much was the only option for the more progressive voters, and he was a foil to the front runner who was a brittle candidate (NOT SAYING SHE WAS BRITTLE PERSONALLY) from decades of slander from the right that was so pervasive it poisoned a lot of democrats.

The Rs gave him a near complete pass because their focus was Hillary, so the enemy of their enemy thing AND they make no secrete that they relish running against him because SOCIALISM.

That was his best shot, possibly. Meanwhile he continued to do this thing of only joining the D party when running for POTUS, which is a pretty big turnoff to people when it keeps getting repeated, and folks are more attuned to the low grade maliciousness of his campaigns for POTUS (by D standards).
