conix -- to reiterate the fact -- Hillary, who received ~3.7 million more votes than did Bernie in the 2016 Democratic primaries (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Results_of_the_Democratic_Party_presidential_primaries,_2016 ), readily won the 2016 Democcratic nomination even entirely discounting the superdelegates (id.)

and I'd say that any such rule change, as to which I'm relatively agnostic (though sympathetic to the referenced objection to the change), should be paired with a new rule stating explicitly that nobody who isn't and hasn't for at least some period of time been openly a registered Democrat/member of the Democratic Party can ever run in any Democratic primary, or as a Democrat in any general election
