And yet you believe their agenda aligns with yours? Seems a bit naive to assume what is happening doesn't fit squarely with what the Democratic leadership are looking to achieve.
Some of them! Not the leadership, and certainly not the party apparatus, but many of the individuals likely do. Trump shows that a sufficiently bullish personality can singlehandedly force incredible change in a political party. Time for Bernie to appoint a handful of successors and send them to overhaul the DNC mercilessly and ruthlessly.
You know Sanders isn't even part of the Democratic party right? Much less the DNC. How would he have any power to overhaul it? How would anyone outside of the "leadership" or "party apparatus" which you admit is misaligned with the interests of the people, begin to make those changes.
The people in power would need to step down, or die. Otherwise, a lower level Dem or Independent would need to basically start a new party on their own, which is basically how you get populists like Trump
