Super Delegates circumvents democracy by the people.
Not really, they're all current or former elected officials. And they always follow the popular vote in the end.
The entire primary process is not official exactly, btw. Only the actual election is *part* of the official process, primaries are something parties (which are non-governmental themselves) have come up with- for a long time, party bosses largely chose the candidates. There's been a couple refinements over time., the current one was only introduced in the 60s.
The primary thing is basically an organizational selection of "who gets the support from these large organizations for running," but anyone can quit the primary and go solo if they want too- losing a primary doesn't prevent one from running, and people who've been primaried' out have run pretty impressively too.

I don't agree at all with that article.Christy proved one thing, his attempt to take Rubio down failed. He ended up looking like the fat guy who's picking on the little guy. And now look, he suspended his campaign.
Christie is a total idiot.
And now people are catching on that Rubio is not the only who who says the same thing over and over..
Huh, interesting view.
It's not simply the repetition thing btw. Lots of commentors have noted if he had done well in NH, it'd be brushed off.
It's that it seemed to affect him in New Hampshire (meaning the voters cared), significantly below pre-debate polls and nullifying his Iowa bounce entirely, and put him below Kasich- someone with presence only in one state- and Jeb (!), and Cruz (!).
He was touting his 'three-two-one' strategy, Third in Iowa, Second in New Hampshire, First in South Carolina. Instead, he dropped in a state that should've been more to his favor and got all the way down in fifth. That's a sign of losing momentum, which in turn makes people shaky about supporting him in the next state, and it's all a feedback loop.
Now, he may break it, loops can and have been broken, but if he doesn't- and he wasn't exactly in a great place to begin with- then this'll be the turning point.
Also, Trump's reaction on the stage:
"Oh my God. That was brutal," Trump muttered to Christie on the debate stage, according to someone familiar with the exchange. "Tremendous."
Its interesting that you think Rubio is done, but you dont have anything to say about Hilary having 400 delegates and basically has not one a single caucus or primary.
Uh, Iowa?
There's two and she's won half of them.
And like I said, she doesn't have them in a binding sense. They can change their mind, in fact they actually only vote at the end with all the others.
All a pledging superdelegate really does is tells you 'this delegate- elected official who the party thinks should have some say- has a strong opinion.' Their purpose is to more convince voters to vote that way.

We know your a creepy gay guy on the Internet curious about men's penis, but do you have to be a flamer?
He does this too much. This kind of stuff is what makes straight people leary [/QUOTE]
He's asked me a few time about my penis, and just posts tranny and homosexual meme's non stop. As a person with zero problem with gay people, he makes me genuinely creeped out. [/QUOTE]

Is he gay
Yep [/QUOTE]
Then that is blatant sexually harrassment. Believe me, if this were a workplace you would have a decent law suit [/QUOTE]
Sorry to interrupt your mutual masturbation session, but you think about me thinking about your penis more than the one time I joked that you must have a small one because of your obsession with guns.
Did it ever occur to you that despite your protests, you are not truly comfortable with LGBT people, otherwise these memes would not get a rise out of you? Did it ever occur to you that is the point?
😱

Why do we have to be comfortable with it? Tolerate sure. Do you want to force people to be comfortable? There is no winning that battle. I am tolerant. We are all individuals with different beliefs that should be respected; as long as those beliefs don't hurt others.
you are gay and that is fine. Given your sexual orientation, directly referencing times penis is sexual harassment. If a straight man did this to a woman it would be perceived that way if the woman doesn't appreciate that attention. So why is there a double standard? So you did indeed sexual harass time and he even mentioned he didn't appreciate the attention. Basically you are a sexual predator and should probably register as such
