jwind11,See feddupps post.People that are silly enough to believe the system still works,as is apparantly your case,are our worst problem.Until people in this country realize that it''s a facade,and are willing to do what it takes to correct the situation,there will be no real change.

We could start by dragging "our" representatives out onto the capitol steps for tar and feathers!

God, this it totally fair.. give delegates to the folks who VOTE! Not the primary ones.. this is the way it is, so suck it up Clinton! And FYI, you are making us all SICK when you try to get the Michigan and Florida delegates COUNTED! That is just Heinous, and if I were ever going to vote for you before, that just ended it. The rules were clear.. move the Primary date, lose your delegates. You signed on to that.. now SUCK IT UP! Jeez you pathetic windbag, fair is fair, and you wanting "do overs" just makes you look more and more pathetic..

So, Clinton, since you are not clear.. here are the rules! DNC rules for FL and MI STAND! Unless they hold NEW caucuses or primaries, they do NOT count.. And to think that the ones who voted matter? Even when they CAST their vote they knew it DIDN''T! To try to claim votes in states where Obama was not on the ballot, and/or didn''t campaign is EVIL! You KNOW that anywhere folks DO get to know Obama better, YOUR numbers fall, and his RISE!

And the DNC rules in other states? Your time to quibble was WAY before the election.

So, basically, the Texas rules are a microcosm of the way the electoral college and "super delegates" rules work.
Basically, the "one person-one vote" is a farce in this country!
The President is chosen by a "select" group of people who supposedly know more than us DUMMY work-a-day folks!
God help us all!!

I still cannot believe that super delegates can be bought..how can that be legal if the person with the most money gets the super delegate vote??..Why do Americans even bother voting if they can overide our vote..oh and by the way..for those of you that doubt that Obama is the anti Christ watch the History channel at 9 eastern 8 central..

"Well--Clinton will like the rules well enough if she wins--we see a pattern here--complain when she thinks the rules will hurt her..." posted by b-easy63

She has a right to complain. You have a whacky voting system.

When Hillary wins she wins because of her - not Bill, not the party bosses, and certainly not because the system is unfair. But when she loses, everything is unfair. Get real woman, the rules are the same for everyone - you knew them going in - and now that your in trouble your looking for loopholes. If you were a true Democrat and cared for what happens to our country over the next 4 years you would drop out and let the party unite behind the candidate with the best chance to beat the republicans - BUT YOU WON''T BECAUSE YOUR HILLARY AND YOUR PRIVILEGDED
