In reply to the discussion: Democrats Plan to Name Lobbyists, Operatives as Superdelegates [View all]murielm99
(30,810 posts)Someone like McGovern? Someone who will lose in a landslide? That is why we have super delegates: so party elders can have a hand in choosing the candidates, so that we do not lose in a landslide. Hillary won by more than three million votes. We have other work to do to see that our winning candidates take office, but that is not the issue here.
There are plenty of republicans who wish they had that system. The lack of super delegates is what gave them, and us, Trump.
This article is very biased. It is little more than propaganda.
I would suggest that you look at the actual names of the super delegates from each state. Look at their experience and what they have done for the party instead of an article like this one.
And until Sanders joins the party, he can sit down and be quiet. He continues to divide and weaken us. I know that fewer people are taking him seriously all the time, and that is a good thing.
