    Let me tell you a tale of old man Sanders and how a certain party rigs those primaries to fuck him over.

      Hillary got more votes than Bernie did. I like Bernie too, but he just wasn’t popular enough. Specifically with Black voters in the South, which is the base of the Democratic Party.

        The race was decided long before primaries were over. At that point people likely didn’t even come out to vote for Bernie

          Speaking of people not voting for Bernie - he’s very popular with independents, who would have been unable to vote for him in a closed primary if they weren’t registered as Democrats.
