This post is for you, you know who you are. The DNC doesn't win elections? On close ones it certainly does.
Let's ignore the cases of the DNC pulling Sanders' ability to access the database that took a lawsuit to fight through.
Let's ignore all these other things right here:

Let's just take a look at two ballots for two states whose races were EXTREMELY close. Illinois and Missouri. Now I'm not SURE how Illinois sets their ballot order but I'm sure Missouri is by "random drawing".
Here are both ballots.
That is some weird luck there. Bernie is somehow LAST on the Illinois ballot, where Clinton is first, and then on Missouri's random ballot Hillary AGAIN won first! How lucky, out of 9 she got first. You know the odds aren't good on that, right?
Also, look at where Bernie is? Conveniently stuck below the only name that takes up 2 spaces, with NO space in between. That's gotta be an accident, right?
You might think the order of candidates means nothing, but you'd be wrong. There's something called first-listing bias and you can read about it here. They say it can account to up to 5% of votes, which is far more than Bernie lost by.

I'm having a hard time with the high and might Democrats that look down on the Republicans like they're so much worse, when they're just worse in a different way.
And for those who are like "Hey, I don't wanna go to war so I gotta vote Dem!". Have you SEEN Hillary's votes regarding wars? She's pretty pro-war. And hell, she's a HUGE fan of Kissinger, and constantly praises him.

So it would just be great if the Dems would start admitting they have just as big a problem as the Repubs in that their so-called lead candidate is as big a POS as Trump, and start at least working to make the playing field level.
Because I guarantee if the field were level, if the DNC and the media didn't constantly tout how unstopped and on her way to victory she is(which, as many studies point out, people vote for perceived winners, so they are influencing the weak-minded)...then Bernie would win.
