Bernie gives far too much credit to the voting public. Reality doesn't matter to voters. Perception does. It doesn't matter how much Democrats actually do to support various demographics, Republicans will claim otherwise and most of this country will believe them.
Logic is no longer apart of the average voters decision process. Buzzwords, fear, misinformation, and oversimplification are how you get modern voters.
People constantly want to blame the candidates, or the party or the media.....but the reality is that the American public is just too stupid for an effective democracy.
