The DNC is the only reason you're not currently enjoying a second-term Sanders and a sane Supreme Court.

Acknowledged. We circled the wagons around the wrong candidate twice in a row. Hillary Clinton was a well qualified candidate with likeability issues. Biden is a long time politician with equally good if not better qualifications than Clinton, he's just old. Bernie is older. Bernie aligns a hell of a lot closer to my beliefs than the other candidates out there. Bernie isn't in this race and has endorsed Biden, he's a wise man and usually is right on most topics. I'm going with Bernie on this one, vote Biden and start building the next generation of leaders, maybe that next leader is you.

Both Hillary and Biden are closer to the country as a whole and more likely to pull moderates, who you need to win if you want to actually win a national election.

The internet has allowed leftists to delude themselves into thinking the only people that need to be appealed to is them.

They fundamentally do not understand the kinds of people that make up this country. I'd love if we were a left leaning population. We aren't. Continually lying to ourselves about why Bernie didn't win is a type of paralyzing ignorance that only looks more and more absurd as the years go on.

Do a poll asking Americans their political alignment and the balance will be center right. Poll them again on specific issues and the average end up well to the left of the Democratic party. For a prime example, look at how all the abortion referendums have turned out in red states.

likeability issues

Is that what we call white supremacism these days? A "likeability issue?"

I voted Hilary because lesser of two evils. But I despise her snake in the grass ass! And me not liking her has absolutely nothing to do with her gender.

But you are right that there are many that hate on a strong, vocal female (AOC).

There are still many strong females out there that would have done better than Hillary and would make great leaders
