Bernie Sanders: to fix the Democratic Party, curb superdelegates, make it easier to vote in primaries, and account for funds

Superdelates were put into place to frustrate popular non-establishment candidates, especially left wing candidates, like McGovern. The system worked as designed with Bernie.

Not really. The superdelegates supported the decision made by the primaries and the caucuses. They supported the winner of the popular vote (Clinton). The only way one could say that the superdelegates came into play is if they’d gone against the popular winner.
