      The rational subset of opposition to Sanders was that he was going to leverage the full authoritarian powers of the Executive to force further socialization of healthcare and education. The long term accumulation of power in the Executive office is why the office of President is now much more important than it once was.

      Bernie was there for a long time. Also, presidential elections are not the only elections! There are all kinds of local, state, and federal elections that also influence the presidential election. With those kinds of elections have participation rates of under 40%, you ain’t changing much.
