a) her inability to get people to vote for her in even close to the same numbers as obama (despite running on a platform of being his heir apparent)

I wonder if that had anything to do with rampant sexism or all of the bullshit corruption allegations she faced for being a normal politician

b) her fail strategy of not campaigning in the states that were her downfall

She would have still lost if she had won in MI/WI. She campaigned extensively in PA and FL. This was a mistake but it wasn't why she lost.

c) the fact that all of the information available showed she was significantly weaker than bernie in the general

i) As far as I remember the polls from near the end of the primary had both her and Bernie beating Trump comfortably with Bernie maybe winning by a point or two more
ii) As I'm sure has been pointed out to you many times (including likely by me), Bernie had not yet been attacked by the GOP and had only been lightly attacked by Clinton. He would not have maintained those numbers had he actually been the nominee.
iii) What did you expect her to do, drop out despite the fact that she beat Bernie handily in the primary?

d) her pied piper strategy that elevated candidates like trump in the first place, when she likely would have been far stronger against someone like Jeb!

I highly doubt Trump would have lost the GOP nomination had Clinton acted any differently. In any case, I do agree that it was stupid to hope that Trump would win the GOP nomination.
