    I’m aware that you think this, but if this were true he wouldn’t lose by 3 million votes.

      Again, the democratic primary voter is not a representation of the entire countries values, and those that hated Obama, and hated Hillary, are more likely to vote for someone that is willing to criticize the system than long standing democratic insiders.

      Ultimately at this point I don’t care to constantly speculate on possible differences in past elections. My point was to hopefully convey that the idea of political views of the people in America as a left-right slider is flawed, and the current selection process biases towards mild candidates that fundamentally are not effective enough in solving the problems we are facing.
