2016 Postmortem

A lot of them are about people at the DNC trying to get ahold of the Sanders' campaign about various requests Sanders made and never hearing back. Such as the debate in California that Sanders demanded but later claimed was rejected by the DNC. The DNC was trying to get more information about when they would want the debate and whatnot but hearing nothing in response.
