At this point Hillary pulling a Vince Foster on Sanders should be considered a mercy killing.

Yes. And not that it matters, but Indiana is probably the most likely place to see a repeat of Michigan were Bernie beats the polls. It's an open primary in a state with a lot of manufacturing jobs and not a lot of black people.

Black voters get to vote for her in 191 days. I saw it on a flyer.

All Sanders needs is to have a rally that gets hashtagged #Sandersdeathmarch and he will have marked his campaign with both the failures of Hillary 08 and Romney 12.

Yeah that's what I figured, the only people actually defending the superdelegate system have been HRC and her people along the lines of "Barack Obama *should* have a say in who is the Democratic Nominee!" like he doesn't already wield huge influence in the process.

Superdelegates are just a fail-safe in case something goes completely off the rails in the primaries. Like not being obligated to nominate someone just indicted for murder or Donald Trump or something. In the vast majority of cases, they should (and do) go along with the choice of the rest of the delegates.

Superdelegates are a non-issue that losing candidates whine about every four years.

According to isidewith.com I'm 97% with Bernie and 93% with both Stein and Clinton. I'm going to have an epic multi-page meltdown when the candidate I prefer by 4% is not selected by democracy.

lol that made me think, do they ever do head to head general election polls on a state level? If they did I bet Hillary would do better in Virginia and NC, and do more to build towards the democratic party's long term goal of turning the entire eastern seaboard blue.

Voters getting to select a candidate for a political party is a privilege, not a right.

The party is not obligated to have any votes or ask anyone's opinion before selecting a candidate. Its a private organization and can do whatever it wants. They're not "making GBS threads on voters" because there was never any promise or expectation that the results of the votes would be binding.

Looks like your high horse had broken legs.
