You keep saying that Bernie Sanders is wildly popular and should have won. Please cite a poll that clearly demonstrates that Bernie Sanders has majority support among citizens as a whole and would win in a free and fair election.
No, Hillary won the majority of both the pledged delegates (selected by party rank-and-file) and plain vote tally. Yes she had already secured the backing of the majority of unpledged delegates (aka superdelegates), but in the end that made no difference. Those unpledged delegates would have been very reluctant to essentially override the will of their voters, even if they felt like it was political suicide in the general election. Also, in the Democratic primary candidates don’t “win” states. Delegates are assigned through proportional representation.
I keep saying that Sanders was the only candidate that was promoting policies that had mass support from the public. In a democracy, a candidate that proposes policies that are most popular should win. If you still can’t understand this then you fundamentally do not understand the concept of democracy. Have a good day.

Is the popular vote enough for you? He won it in multiple states and then the superdelegates decided to pick Hillary instead. How is that democracy?
