...Debates on Saturday/Sunday during college football and NFL games. Around 95% of the politicians siding with Hillary even as voters say that it's much closer than that between the candidates. But Bernie signed up for the primary knowing the rules of the game and it was a big favor to the Democrats. He could have run Independent and completely screwed the party in November.

The important thing is that his message is getting out there. Even if they defeat Bernie, they will not be able to continue trotting out corporate-owned politicians in the future. If Hillary gets into office and 8 years later things are even worse for regular people, there will be an outright revolt against the party bosses. People will stop falling for the dog and pony show.
