By the way, I'm sick of saying this but the superdelegate fix is in for Hillary. And the RNC might do the same damn thing to Trump come crunch time. It's not inconceivable that both Trump and Sanders could end up running as independents. And wtf, throw Bloomberg in there, too.

The superdelegates are not the main reason why Bernie Sanders is losing, though it does give Hillary the edge. (despite my somewhat irrational rant above)
The main reason why Sanders is losing is because
he cannot attract black or Hispanic voters, Hillary is killing him in this department.
Bernie Sanders could have all the superdelegates on his side and he would still loose major states like South Carolina, Alabama, Texas, Nevada,
there is no way he will win Florida or California.
In the Republican Primaries capturing the non white vote doesn't matter in the Democratic Primaries its an absolute game changer!
Personally I don't blame them,
Hillary is the conservative economic choice, and
the first people affected in an economic downturn is the working class, which are traditionally black and Hispanic neighborhoods.
PS I don't bold to be a dick, it just makes it easier for people to read my points.
