I think more democracy is better. Which post 2016 the Democrats did make the primary more democratic. Sanders still lost fair and square both times. Even in 2016 Sanders didn't face anything substantially different than Obama did in 2008. By rights the Democrat party doesn't have to let anyone run as a Democrat either. If they feared him they didn't have to let him run. Hell, till the 1970s they didn't even hold primaries as we recognize them. So your claims don't really make sense.
