The popular vote numbers are convincing on the face until you realize that Sanders conceded before all the primaries were held. This means for a lot of states Biden was the only option.

It would be a better argument if Sanders was a viable candidate in every race.

Regardless he did concede and you can litigate the reasons for that if you guys want.
