Don’t speak facts here. That’s not allowed.

I have been an elected delegate in the past.. Believe me, in some areas no one runs for it.

Yes, we do. Don't let an uninformed, ignorant electorate get in the way though. It's time to stomp our feet, raise our voices and pitch a fit over things we don't understand!

Note: I'm a Trump supporter but at least I understand (and have understood for 30+ years now ...) the rules by which a candidate wins primaries and the nomination.

Having said that, the "delegate" system is ripe for corruption and manipulation by the respective political parties rules committees as well as the state committees and that's where the corruption exists. What we are seeing is not a system that's "rigged" for one candidate or another, but a MANIPULATION of that system by corrupt politicians and party insiders.

We vote for our delegates.

We vote for our delegates too (PA). It's just that the majority of them don't have to follow our wishes, even on the first ballot.

I voted for my delegate right here in Colorado! It was like a functioning republic in action, just like our forefathers envisioned.

If ignorance truly is bliss, why are you trump supporters so angry and not happy?
