Good god, the comments in this thread are a dumpster fire. People are making such leaps in logic to connect the dots between DNC staffers trying to slander Bernie and the whole election being rigged for Hillary. Dear Bernie supporters, please listen closely, Hillary did not win because the system was rigged, she won because she received 3.2M more votes than Bernie. That's it. That's the whole ballgame right there. There was no conspiracy. There was no stolen election. Hillary won because she got millions more votes. Please don't make this into something it's not. And believe me, I was a Bernie supporter. I even donated to his campaign. But I have to say, the behavior of many Bernie supporters this past week has been truly reprehensible. Bernie himself has said that we must unite to defeat Trump. As far as I can tell if you oppose that then you're part of the problem, not the solution.

I don't know man. "super delegates"!! 300 of them were in the can for her at the word go! 6 debates when the prior years had 20 or more. Emails of DNC staffers discussing how to defame him based off of his religion. Doesn't mean Bernie would have won without all of that but to dismiss it like you are doing in my opinion is short sighted.

HC won the popular vote and the super delegate vote.  She definitely would have won the super delegate vote because guess what she is a Democrate who has served in the party for a long time.  Bernie has not served day one in the party until he wanted to become President.  Next he wanted to change the system because guess what it did not favor someone who isn't a democrate.  Lets be honest here, Bernie is not idiot.  He knew the system before he joined and he know the steep hill he had to climb in order to become the DNC choice when he definitely do not share the party views.  Its good that Bernie brought new life to the party but thinking he was going to change decades on the institution in one run is silly.  If he lives to be 80+ then he has a much better chance
