Even the most fanatic Hillary supporter has to admit that 99.9% name recognition vs a person with 0.01% name recognition a year ago plays SOME role. I have talked to alot of people and there are still many people out there who dont know he exists.
Since Bernie and his supporters run around broadcasting about how much support they've been getting over the last year, and all of the millions upon millions of small donators, I'd say your posting adds just another excuse for failure that was doomed from the start.
The writing is on the wall. She lost big time among the "kids" under 50 in her home state of IL, and its only the unique combo of the 65+ crowd and the African American voter that keeps this policy platform viable in this election. The future belongs to the New Dealers, not the corporate Democrats, and the donor class knows it.
None of that matters one whit when the kids are too busy beer bonging on Daytona Beach to vote, and too lazy to vote ahead of time by mail. I'm sure you have a ready-made excuse for that fact, too.
You are seemingly growing more desperate to make sense of all of this with every Sanders loss. The reality is that you're following this election with myopic eyes and have discounted anyone who doesn't think just like you.
Some people will vote Democrat no matter how pathetic the candidates are (not that some Rs are all that much better). They are stuck with voting for either a lying, incompetent, corrupt old woman, or an addled, screeching loon of a communist. Pick the lesser of two evils. At least you know Hillary is just out for Hillary. While corrupt, she might be a bit rational.
So Bernie has passed ZERO meaningful laws in his 25 years in Congress, and only manage to attach to other bills, spending programs for corporate welfare, and a bunch of other meaningless bs...
success clearly is defined differently.
Yes, tell that to the voters of Vermont, he is the most popular senator in the country according to polls! But you of course know him MUCH better than his own people of course.

Yes, corporate media is still powerful. But only among the 50+ crowd. People who grew up with the internet vote very differently than the Hillary crowd.

Of course it matters. And Hillary needs ALL the support she can get from these people you constantly deride if she becomes the nominee, so keep going.

When you grow up you'll learn that elections aren't personal things for most mature people. Your enthusiasm is adorable and all, but it's blinded you to some realities of life.

Endless wars, for-profit prisons and the TPP are not realities in life, they are bad choices made by bad human decisions. Her campaign should rather ask themselves why young women dont want to have her as the first female president. Albright said on the Hillary campaign trail that they will go to hell because of it, perhaps this type of rhetoric and alienation of the future of the party is what we can expect more of as the old guard becomes increasingly desperate?

Your problem is one of a very typical youth nature. You are young and bright-eyed and think that you know it all, and it's confusing and frustrating to discover that there are so many people out there who don't agree with you. Your ego is a bit battered now and so it's easier to just claim that it's the other people who are all wrong. As you become older and wiser, you will hopefully become a bit more diplomatic and open to the thoughts and opinions of others and it may help you see better. Good luck.
Everyone knows Hillary lies, is corrupt, and unethical, but the real problem is that her supporters don't care.
