By Daniel Schultz

Tuesday’s Democratic primary in New York made even clearer a point that has been obvious since Super Tuesday: Bernie Sanders almost certainly will not be the Democratic nominee in 2016.

As many have argued, when we get to Philadelphia, Sanders can use his total delegate count to leverage changes in the party platform or nomination process.
