There is a button in front of you.

If you press the button, the Democratic Party will immediately revise its rules to completely eliminate superdelegates. They will no longer have any voting power. Instead, whoever gains the majority of pledged delegates becomes the nominee.

If you do not press the button, the existing system stays in place, and the 700+ superdelegates retain the power to vote for whomever they want at the convention.

The question, for Bernie supporters only, is this: Do you press the button?
