The Democrats had a chance to become the majority party of the United States and they blew it. They made the decision to push to the Left and they alienated the base of the country. Now in their defeat, they're pushing even further to the Left and they'll push themselves into being the permanent minority party.
Of course, the problem with your trying-to-say theory is what she actually said...
"In my opinion we don't need white people leading the Democratic party right now," Sanders said. "The Democratic party is diverse, and it should be reflected as so in leadership and throughout the staff, at the highest levels.

That is a better explanation., but that doesnt change the fact that tokenism exist within the Republican Party.
David Clarke is a great example.
David Clarke is not a token! Republicans like him because of his ideas, not because he's black. Some people, especially on this forum, view everything through a racial lens (some whites included). People would respond to his message whether he was white or black, because he's a strong advocate for the rule of law.
