“us little folk haven’t had any control over the nominee” Yes, you do. Do the work in the party. Man the phone banks, show up for delegate elections, volunteer to be a poll watcher or poll worker. Show that you care about the party over time and you too can be someone who matters to the party.
FWIW, I have manned phone banks, the last time four years ago for the Romney campaign. There was absolutely NO outreach to volunteers to be part of the process.
you’re a dreamer.
Show up with $1000000 and you too can be endorsed to run for congress by the party.
The goal of both partys is to limit those who participate.
My states delegates have already been told who to vote for on the second ballot and the election isn’t until 6/7
That is the party line but the lie is being exposed. The sanctimonious folks at the top say put in your time & donate but the truth is that some pigs are more equal than others in the oligarchy of these states. The process is designed to reward the insiders who have participated in business as usual while trashing this country while feeding at the trough.
