Un-Democratic Party: DNC Chair Says Superdelegates Ensure Elites Don't Have to Run 'Against Grassroots Activists'
Finally, admitting what we all knew anyway.
Jake Tapper interviewing Debbie Wasserman Schultz:
“What do you tell voters who are new to the process who say this makes them feel like it’s all rigged?” Tapper asked the DNC chair.
“Unpledged delegates exist really to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don’t have to be in a position where they are running against grassroots activists,” Wasserman Schultz calmly explained.
The Democratic Party elite apparently think that they can get away with stealing an election with superdelegates. They are underestimating Bernie, and his supporters. As you may recall, 500,000 of us wrote and emailed DNC to get them to release Bernie’s records when they impounded them the week before Iowa.
We are sick of being cheated and lied to. It’s time to take down the superdelegate system.
