Some people simply can't accept the fact that maybe, somewhere there are people who like someone different than you. Perish the thought.

Um, they did it.
Doesn't mean Bernie would have won, i believe HRC would have likely won no matter what as the more moderate candidate... doesn't mean they didn't tip the scales though
So this is why 55% voted for HRC vs. Bernie? Is that the argument? Because they had fundraising agreements rather than Bernie who refused to not only join the party, but refused to broadly support down ballot candidates.

Explain 'fixing' please.
By the strictest of definitions, I suppose "fixed" isn't the word. But the Brazille story points to the party hedging its bets toward Hillary. It's kinda like the NBA. No, they don't script a win for the higher-profile teams and players, but they give them the benefit of the doubt on the calls. The lesser team has to do better than play even with the more important team. Similarly, I don't think you have to be outrageously cynical to think Bernie needed a better-than-50% +1 performance to beat Hillary and that it's because the party was favoring her from day 1.
I share some of the criticism that Bernie is only a Democrat when it's convenient. And I understand that the party can run itself how it wants to. But the superdelegates are able water down the vote.
If the party leaders want Biden and the voters come out overwhelmingly for, say, Harris, then Harris will win the nomination. But if it's close, the party leaders should prevail. Fix? No. Hedge? I'd say so.

Hedging “bets” is a fact of life and individuals and organizations do it all the time. And party leaders want the “win.”

The fundraising deal was made in 2015, before Bernie was even a Democrat. I never saw how this was some indication of fixing, although I appreciate OnWis's softening of the word. But it's annoying that this talking point persists, while materially untrue. And this talking point is likely one of the reason so many Sanders voters defected to Trump (enough to tip the three key states), let alone those that stayed home. This talking point is starting again.

I totally get it. Biden opening a huge lead early as an old stodgy white guy must be because of a fix or hedge and for no other possible reason(s). Some people can’t accept that Bernie and his policies are too radical. Has anyone ever asked Bernie how he’d get congress to go along to implement his policies or does that not matter, being pure and all?

And others forget that 1. The party is minority heavy (not Sanders's demographic), the party is generally older, and the party is generally more moderate. Last, polls are adjusted for expected turnout. Who turns out? Older people, not young people. Too many people talk about the "energy" of the party, and where that's located. It doesn't matter how many tweets I unload, I only get one vote. The majority of the party, the ones that have been there through it all, are not on twitter. They are at work.

I would surmise that the DNC had 10,000x more involvement in influencing Hillary’s nomination than the Russians did with Trump.
Did you get a bunch of facebook ads lying about Bernie on your newsfeed? My conservative friends continue to tag me in FB anti-HIllary memes that are completely untrue 98% of the time. You're saying that Hillary and the DNC having a joint fundraising agreement in 2015 affected voting 10,000 to 1, compared to lies on social media. Am I understanding you correctly?
