Sanders polled better in swing states. States like Michigan and Winsconsin would have been a significantly closer battleground had they chosen the more charismatic person over the system choice.
The DNC picked the choice their core base wanted most, but not the choice the swing states would have voted more likely for. It isn't a game of who you want to win at times, its a game of who would have had a better chance.
They finally admit Clinton blew Sanders out of the water in the popular vote but only when they think it gives them an excuse to talk down at the stupid proles who didn't know what was good for them.
You're basically complaining that Trump got a bullshit EC win but Sanders didn't.
First the fix is in because there weren't primaries and now it's in because the DNC listened to it too much.
Anything to worship at the altar of St. Bernard, who told you shitbags to support the winner both times.
you can blame whoever you want, but they chose to win a battle, and not think of the war.
