I was never a supporter of Hillary Clinton for President. I’m a conservative and aside from her being too far left for my political tastes; the Clintons have far too much corruption on their résumé for me to ever feel good about allowing them ultimate power again.
However, I am quite troubled by the fact that a man far less qualified than Hillary was able to upset her juggernaut campaign and become the DNC nominee by less than democratic tactics.
I’m a conservative who believes in the need for two strong political parties, each a necessary tool to keeping the other in line. When “the party of the people” openly engages in running roughshod over their own people, all of us have a very serious problem on our hands.
I find it very disturbing that “the party of the people” completely ignored their people and forced an entirely unqualified nobody down the throats of voters who clearly preferred Hillary Clinton as their nominee. This does not a democracy make…

I wish every American would read this piece!
Makes sense to me. And I think if we take a long look at the whole primary process we would find many discrepancies, which led to Obama victory over Clinton.
Obama has a pattern in his campaigns. None so far have been run as a people vote, but more as how Obama can attain the win. Tactics have been used in all of the elections that he has won.
I just hope people wake up before its too late.
Hillary had a 500,000 vote advatage over Obama when she was run out of the race.... Did you miss this news flash?
I missed that news flash. I thought part of Hillary’s vote total included Michigan, where Obama wasn’t on the ballot. And, some web sites were counting caucus totals, but some caucuses didn’t officially count the number of supporters of various candidates, just the number of delegates that came out of the caucus.
Anyway, I thought that various news outlets were deducting Michigan from Hillary and making other adjustments to the totals of votes in the primaries.
Scary stuff!
Sadly, the press is doing all it can to keep the people alseep...
Have you been keeping up with all the early voter fraud in DNC voter registration drives? ACORN is already under investigation for duplicating or inventing thousands of illegal voter registrations...
Voter fraud is Obama’s tactic of choice in the general. Hope Republicans have a handle on it.
Hillary got out when she knew she couldn’t win by the existing rules.
Wow! Thank you for posting.
We have no national parties. We have national committees. The parties are individual state organizations.
The Democrat National Committee tossed Flordia and Michigan voters out because they didn’t like what the state party did in scheduling their primaries.
They disenfranchised their own party loyalists, most of whom voted for Clinton. Without disenfranchising those voters, Clinton would have been the nominee by some half million votes.
Hillary got out when she was told to get out. Wake up!
Welcome!
Yup!
If you're going to throw out part of how we elect people why not throw it all out?
Just say, "Hillary should have won because she has longer hair than Obama". Now you might say, "that's not how we elect people". And you would be right.
That's what I'm saying to you.
>It’s worth noting that FactCheck, which has been at the epicenter of Obama’s Fight the Smears effort, is also owned and operated by the same left-wing think tank, Annenberg Foundation, that has been behind Obama since his Columbia University days.<
So, what does the Obama camp have on the Clinton’s that is so bad the Clinton’s can’t fight back?
The press is aligned with the Democrat Socialists.
No surprise there.
ACORN is one of Obama’s behind the scenes workers.
Read up on how Obama got elected to the State House and to the Senate. He has never won an election by a purely by the people vote. As a matter of fact, most times he had removed his opponent from the ballot and basically won by default.
>Today’s DNC does not represent “the power of the people,” but rather a new power over the people. Howard Dean is the new sheriff in town and a new power base for the party came with him.
>Meet Dean’s Democratic Socialists of America. The Obama-Biden campaign platform is not of their own creation. The platform is built by the Democratic Socialists of America and it is run by their congressional organization, the Progressive Democrat (aka Socialist) Caucus.
>Essentially, Bill and Hillary were told to “stand down.” They were told to “step aside” and to make room for the new “charismatic Messiah.” Once the Obama nomination was secured, they were told that they would support Obama-Biden, even though that would require them to swallow their pride and ambition, and completely reverse course from everything they had stood for previously.
The story is this:
1. The MEDIA went into the tank for Øbama vs. Clinton and gave Hillary the Conservative Republican treatment in deference to the Messiah. Milliions of Hillary voters NOTICED and now hate the media and Øbama and will vote for McCain.
2. Øbama’s thugs and minions STOLE the nomination. Go to youtube and watch “We Will Not Be Silenced” on the Chicago Machine tactics Øbama used to “win”.
