Maybe Sanders will not be on the ballot because Warren is a typical career politician and is shrewd enough to hedge her bets until the outcome seemed obvious, which is why she didn't endorse him early on in the primaries and let Bernie 'no superpac' Sanders wither on the vine.
Just like Clinton, Warren can make all the noise she wants about campaign finance reform and criticizing corporate monopolies since her job is to tell the DNC faithful exactly what she thinks they want to hear. Those that write the big checks to the superpacs understand the game.
People who bear the brunt of socialized profits might tend to have less cognitive dissonance when accused of being racist, bigoted, xenophobic and idiotic, which the megacorp controlled media seems fond of doing. At some point the truth becomes apparent, despite the propaganda, as the robber barons have us spiral down in the race to the bottom with unfettered immigration and policies that only benefit them.
Here in the US we have two types of corporate controlled media; one that wants us to welcome cheap labor with open arms at the expense of social services and prevailing wages, and the other that wants us to let industries 'police' themselves. Despite that, somehow we've ended up with two insurgent candidates for president, both of which proffering a stand against globalization.
That older voters favored the Brexit seems to support your theory. Perhaps having a longer lifetime of being lied to and manipulated by the political elite and moneyed interests may cause one to be more cynical and simply vote no on incumbents without fully being able to grasp the full implications and ramifications, all despite the media drumbeat of how wrong they are. There is no trust that the bought-and-paid-for ruling class is looking out for their interests.
