13309682, the popular vote means next to nothing in this situation

you run to win the election, which means winning the electoral college. she ignored or largely ignored key states and key segments of her base, several of which you named. beyond this "total" are any of *your* statements based on facts? if she did so well with women, latinos and black voters, how the hell did she manage to lose the election or even let Trump come as close as he did in the popular vote (which I realize is not particularly close)?

so far the poo-pooing of Sanders i see are people who are still deluded about the fact that she performed poorly. pointing to the popular vote is like telling me how well a soccer played on a futsal-sized field. the other group are people who want a candidate with similar ideas and records to his but in a younger, likely darker and possibly female body. sounds awesome. find me that person.
