Obama used the caucus states to overcome HRC in 2008 and she did the same to Bernie Sanders in 2016.
“That means first abolishing caucuses and using only primaries to pick convention delegates. (One exception can be made for the iconic Iowa caucuses.) The selection of a nominee should not be limited to those voters able to attend a caucus...”
“Second, Democratic presidential primaries should not be limited to Democrats only. Independent voters not affiliated with any party should be allowed to vote. Only members of other political parties should be barred. (Allowing Republicans to vote in the Democratic primaries could give rise to great mischief.) About half of the primaries and caucuses held by Democrats in 2016 were closed, meaning only registered Democrats could participate. What kind of message is sent to independents by a not welcome sign in the spring?”
“Finally, it is time for the superdelegates to lose their convention votes. Actual voters should pick Democrats next nominee, not current elected officials, retired officials or DNC members. These party leaders should come to the convention as nonvoting delegates.”
Wow, so they want to get rid of a system that got their own Candidates nominated? They aren’t making sense. If the will of the registered Democrats is to nominate a crazy nominee, there isn’t much that can be done about it. Likewise for the GOP.
They still refuse to get rid of super delegates. (Not yet sincere enough.)
Even if you accept (as I do) that Hillary Clinton won the 2016 nomination fair and square
I seriously doubt that anyone believes that. They do accept it though. That is a different species of animal and more akin to the other creatures in the Democrat zoo.
