Democrats would have voted Bernie no matter what scandals came his way. The deciding votes in this election were that very large (12-13%) of undecided mostly independents.
Bernie didn't need the young crown, just Democratic unity, which he would have had, and to beat Trump with the the undecideds, which he had a better chance of than Clinton, particularly inthe areas that counted, which include RURAL America.
The primaries are a useless measure because they doesn't include ANY non-registered democrats (or disenfranchised Republicans) in the measure, and we all know those existed this election. Bernie would have been a much more appealing candidate to both of those groups.
Look, I think Clinton would have made a very good President. By absolutely ANY measure, a better one than Trump. I voted for her and did so with enthusiasm. But we gotta stop putting our head in the sand. This is a popularity contest now (much as I hate that), particularly with social media being what it is nowadays, and Clinton wasn't good at that aspect, and Bernie was. Next time,we need a candidate that inspires people, or this will just keep happening, because half the people have less than an average IQ, you know? You have to appeal to them as well!
