Disenfranchisement is meant by the fact that the number of people who caucus is always lower than the number of people who vote in a primary -- which does not accurately reflect the number of "Democratic Party" voter in one state versus another.  So Minnesota may end up with fewer "popular votes" in your way of counting, even though it has more Democratic voters than some other states, and so on.  That is the disenfranchisement, not of the particular people who did come out and caucus, but of the caucus states in the whole.
