And what about the 10 million democratic voters ready to join a 3rd party if bernie loses because of the awful job the dnc has done in maintaining an equal opportunity primary?

Most of them aren't actually voters.

Any divide or shift in the parties has to come from the top, not the people. We've seen this through 230 years of this two-party system.

My point was that a huge chunk of Bernie Sanders' support has come from people who have not regularly voted in the past. The Barack Obama voting base heavily favors Hillary Clinton.

I never said "cool with." The Democrats have major issues to answer. They simply are in a better position than the Republicans because they actually seem to want to admit their flaws. There's a reason Hillary Clinton has very obviously shifted left during this primary.
