imo keep super delegates, but make it illegal to declare who you're voting for and also mysteriously remove every super delegate from the voter rolls unless they have an ID card (must be purchased from the DSA by proving you're a socialist) also you have to register with the DSA last year

let the superdelegates vote but all 800 or whatever of them are counted in a simple majority vote for 1 delegate to be allocated at the convention

IMO let the superdelegates vote then ignore their vote and cast them into a volcano en masse.

The best thing about the bootstraps meme is its origins as an idiom whose whole point is that it's impossible to pull yourself up by the bootstraps.

keep super delegates but they have to commit suicide live at the convention for their vote to count if they feel it really is their civic duty to override the electorate, so be it

TRUMP Who cares about what she did about foreclosures, Trump is making it more difficult for new home buyers to get loans!" electing a bad Dem on the theory that they are "better than the Republican" is actually counterproductive, because four/eight years later, people still have all the problems they elected the Dem to fix, so they're even less likely to vote for a Dem than usual unbutthurtable posted:This is pretty wild, actually it's fairly standard stuff, I believe if you have a big enough advertising budget, the social network companies will happily send you some staffers to advise you so you don't feel like you're wasting that ad money given the sheer amount of money that gets spent on political advertising, I'm honestly not that shocked that they had specialized divisions just for politics that said, Parscale is a tremendous bullshit-monger and I wouldn't believe a word he says without outside confirmation

Main Paineframe posted:that said, Parscale is a tremendous bullshit-monger and I wouldn't believe a word he says without outside confirmation According to CBS, they got confirmation from Clinton staffers. And yeah, the story isn't that the Trump campaign had embedded account managers who liked them, that's normal in advertising on that scale. It's entirely that the Clinton campaign turned it down.

imo don’t let them vote until the second ballot but have fun with it: reps get one vote for each term they have served senators get four votes for each term governors get one vote for each county in their state (demesne size) Vice Presidents gets two votes for every tie they broke in the senate Presidents get votes equal to their approval rating on their last day in office rounded up DNC chairs get one vote for every million dollars of debt the DNC was in when they left

I was involved in sit-ins, in the Freedom Rides, the March on Washington, the March from Selma to Montgomery ... but I met Hillary Clinton.”

They then proceeded to ask Trump's department of labour to help them union bust while agitating against single payer in Cali. It sucks that something as vital as PP is ultimately run by the same kind of assholes you find all over the non profit industrial complex. (Also he also called the Human Rights Campaign establishment and people who should loving know better were suddenly pretending that the most beltway, establishment bourgie gay org possible was a plucky little grassroots organization that gave a single gently caress about anything other than marriage)

EugeneJ posted:didn't he say he saw Bill and Hillary at the Selma March or something ridiculous It was an extremely calculated statement meant to call Bernie's Civil Rights involvement into question while allowing a later, lesser-seen clarification that he didn't mean the Civil Rights era, he meant that he hasn't seen Bernie involved with black issues since but he has seen the Clintons. I've said it before but it is really the most Clintonite thing to go full stupid on an attack ("Bernie is lying about his civil rights involvment") when a perfectly fine attack ("Bernie hasn't really had much to do with black issues since") is right loving there but nope, gotta go all in at all times on mudslinging.
