I'd like to see the party be willing to side with Sanders on this one, but even if the party defied the CBC and adopted Sanders' requests, I'm not sure it would placate him or his remaining supporters. It takes two to deal.

The problem with minority strength in the primaries is that it just feeds into national political polarization by race, which is counterproductive. The GOP's goal is to turn the entire country into Alabama, and that can't be allowed to happen if the left is going to have a chance to win. If that means diluting minority voting strength in primaries that's okay.
