Well, it does in the aggregate, unless you don't live in a swing state.
PSST: Texas and Mississippi *might* be swing states this year. Hilariously.

You want to waste your right to vote, that's your call.
I would appreciate it, however, if you would stop trying to encourage others to do likewise by telling them the election is already lost in fucking July.

Well, I don't know how to sugarcoat it, but that's exactly what it is. It's either waste my vote on Hillary, which wont matter cause she won't win anyway, or just not vote. I'm going with option B.

Probably for the best. At this point, and considering your judgment skills, I'm not sure that I'd trust you with the responsibility of holding a remote control, much less voting.

Now that I would not agree with.
Everyone should exercise their right to vote. God knows people have paid a high price for that right. I wouldn't tell even a Trump supporter not to vote.

They're selected by the national committee drawing one name out of a hat they'd filled with slips of paper with that name written on them.
At least in the case of the DNC. The RNC apparently preferred the 'whatchagot stew' method this go-around and ended up with a big steaming bowl of feces in their hands instead of a hat.

No.
Five people ran for the nomination. Two never got any traction at all, and dropped out early. A second couldn't find a message that worked, and eventually dropped out to endorse Hillary. Bernie put up a good fight, but regardless of bias on the part of the DNC, he lost it fair and square, as both he and his campaign spokesperson have said. This was not collusion, it was not collaboration, it was a democratic process that produced a result that I found to be somewhat disappointing, but still acceptable.

Collusion and collaboration can exist within an otherwise nominally democratic process.
Would Clinton have won even without superdelegates and friends in high places pulling for her? Probably so. Does this negate the institutional fuckedness that is the superdelegate system and the DNC being biased in her favor? Nope. Because thanks to aforementioned superdelegate system and DNC bias, we won't actually know for sure because what was going on wasn't a 'democratic process', it was a predetermined outcome that experienced some bumpiness because the predetermined candidate proved less popular than expected in comparison to an aging hippie nutbar and that bumpiness was quickly worked against by the DNC in the hopes of limiting any long-term damage to the party from the predetermined nature being demonstrated by aforementioned aging hippie nutbar.
Or, in other words, Exhibit #1,389 of why the American electorate is apathetic and cynical of the political process.
