POLITICS
Hillary Clinton’s Superdelegates Are Designed To Suppress Voter Voice
The vote of a single superdelegate is the equivalent of thousands of citizen votes.

By Greg Sorrell
MAY 3, 2016

Heading into Indiana’s primary, Hillary Clinton has managed to amass 1,663 delegates, while Bernie Sanders has 1,367. Despite receiving 56,332 more votes than Clinton, Sanders left New Hampshire with two less delegates than Clinton. Since then, Clinton has won a similarly disproportionate share of delegates in several narrow primary victories.
For Democrats, such an obvious disregard for the electorate must be jarring. In contrast to the GOP, the Democrats use superdelegates in their election process, who make up approximately 40 percent of the 2,382 delegates needed to secure the Democratic nomination for president. The vote of a single superdelegate is the equivalent of thousands of citizen votes.
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) describes superdelegates simply as distinguished party leaders—a category that includes Democratic governors and members of Congress, former presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, former vice president Al Gore, retired congressional leaders, and all DNC members.
A deeper inquiry reveals the unpleasant presence of a number of lobbyists, fundraisers, and lawyers. I wonder how the people of New Hampshire, whose communities are overwhelmed by severe heroin epidemic, would feel upon discovering that a vote cast by Bill Shaheen, a former co-chair on Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign and the founder of a law firm that lobbies for one of the largest opioid distributors in the state, has the equivalence of 10,000 citizen votes.
While both Democrat and Republican seniors offer endorsements, the Democratic superdelegates give actual votes that count toward the nomination. A common and very reasonable criticism is that superdelegates have the power to swing the results to nominate a candidate who did not receive the majority of votes during the primaries. We are seeing this play out in this year’s primary season.
The Superdelegate History
The superdelegate story really begins in 1972. Much like the GOP of today, the 1972 field of Democratic presidential candidates was crowded, with each candidate appealing to a very specific base of voters. The Democratic primary season was long and grueling. The candidates attacked one another ruthlessly. With a narrow victory in the winner-take-all state of New York on June 20, George McGovern emerged as the frontrunner but had been severely weakened by Hubert Humphrey’s character attacks. McGovern had become synonymous with “amnesty, abortion, and acid.”
Clearly the leading Democrats at the time were tired of seeing their chosen, established candidates lose to insurgents and outsiders.
During his campaign McGovern ignored the conventional method of targeting traditional party power centers by focusing instead on grassroots organization, drawing huge support from students, anti-war activists, and reform liberals. The Democratic Party establishment wasn’t buying what McGovern was selling, so they formed an “Anybody But McGovern” coalition led by southern Democrats and labor unions.
After a highly contested and divided convention, McGovern secured the nomination but failed to gain the support of party leaders. His primary choice for a running mate turned him down, as did several others. A few months later, he lost the general election to Richard Nixon in the second largest landslide in American history.
Four years later, a little-known candidate, former Georgia governor Jimmy Carter, won his party’s nomination by steadily accumulating delegates during a long and crowded primary season. Carter’s political centrism coupled with his image as a Washington outsider gave him a sufficient lead over his better-known establishment opponents. With Carter closing in on the nomination, a movement called “ABC” (Anyone But Carter) arose. California Gov. Jerry Brown and Idaho Sen. Frank Church entered the race and defeated Carter in the remaining primaries, but it wasn’t enough to prevent Carter from winning the necessary delegates.
During the Democratic National Convention of 1980, Sen. Ted Kennedy and many other party leaders challenged Carter again, then the sitting president. Their objection served only to divide the party further, but clearly the leading Democrats at the time were tired of seeing their chosen, established candidates lose to insurgents and outsiders.
Moving Power from People to Party
After Carter’s historic defeat in his bid for re-election in 1980, Jim Hunt, then governor of North Carolina, chaired the Commission on Presidential Nominations—later called the Hunt Commission—with the express intention of transferring the ultimate decision-making power from the general population back to the organized party.
In the minds of Democratic Party leaders, they had created a more stable and predictable nominating process that favored mainstream candidates and policies.
There were two essential motives in giving party elders a louder voice in the nomination process: One was preventing ideologically extreme candidates—like Carter, who was viewed as too conservative. The other was to avoid another grassroots phenomenon where a lesser-known individual with little establishment support is allowed to win the nomination. This transfer of power effectively clipped grassroots influence by creating superdelegates.
In the minds of Democratic Party leaders, they had created a more stable and predictable nominating process that favored mainstream candidates and policies. To the broader electorate, they had silenced their dissent. After the new rules were adopted, The New York Times wrote that the creation of superdelegates “seemed infused with a desire to deny future nominations to political reincarnations of the Jimmy Carter of 1976.”
So when the news broke that Hillary Clinton would be leaving New Hampshire with the most delegates despite her remarkable defeat, many new voters and Sanders supporters were justifiably puzzled and dismayed. Clearly, they had assumed that a vote was a vote. It is bewildering to hear DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz say, when questioned about these superdelegates, that although the Democratic Party “wants to give every opportunity to grassroots activists to participate” in its nomination process, superdelegates “exist to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don’t have to be in a position where they are running against grassroots activists.”
That says it all.

BC, This is a writer of your article.



Says it clear there, "his transformation from ill-informed, angry liberal to gun-toting, ..... conservative".

It's waste of my time to spend reading what these folks have to say.

All students whatever VISAs you are on, Get your education/degree and GET BACK TO YOUR COUNTRIES.
You can't over-stay in the USA.

This is Donald Trump's language. He is right, those who come to the US to get degree, return back once it's done. Democrats have opposite view, they want to keep best brains in the country.
In most formal language, here is exact words what Trump said ,"

“The influx of foreign workers holds down salaries, keeps unemployment high, and makes it difficult for poor and working class Americans — including immigrants themselves and their children — to earn a middle class wage. … We need companies to hire from the domestic pool of unemployed. Petitions for workers should be mailed to the unemployment office not USCIS [U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services].”— Trump proposal on campaign website

Donald Trump vows to end H1-B visa program

SO THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE WORKING IN CORPORATIONS CUBICLE UNDER WHATEVER VISA YOU HAVE THAT YOU ACQUIRED AFTER UR STUDY, IF YOU ARE WORRIED THAT YOUR TAX MONEY IS GOING TOWARDS FEEDING ILLEGALS WELFARE AND YOU VOW TO END IT, WELL YOU ARE TOTALLY UNAWARE THAT YOU ARE ON TRUMP'S LIST TOO. YOU'LL BE DEPORTED BACK ALONG WITH THOSE ILLEGALS.

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP, CHECK TRUMP'S WEBSITE. IT'S TOO GOOD TO HEAR, HE'S DEPORTING ILLEGALS. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, HE WANTS TO KEEP JOBS TO AMERICAN PEOPLE INSTEAD OF OUTSOURCING MEANING YOU FOREIGN STUDENTS/WORKERS WILL HAVE TO GO BACK.

AND THOSE OF YOU, WHO ARE WAITING ON YOUR TPS APPROVAL, MARK MY WORD, THE MOMENT TRUMP BECOMES POTUS ALL THOSE POLICIES WOULD BE REPEALED. SO SAY SAYONARA TO THAT TOO. IN FACT I DON'T LIKE THAT TPS BEING ABUSED BY BUNCH OF FEW PPL WITH REACH. EVERYONE JUMPED OFF THEIR SEATS WHEN THEY HEARD TPS BEING GRANTED, I HAVEN'T HEARD A SINGLE PERSON BEING GRANTED TPS YET TO SEE IT IN EFFECT. KEEP WAITING, NOT GONNA HAPPEN UNTIL ANOTHER 12 MONTHS.

SO IF YOU WANT TO SEE ALL THESE HAPPEN,
DON'T VOTE FOR TRUMP.

My suspicion based off of some conspiracy lurking in some corner of internet, Trump is Hillary's decoy.
Is it?

he is right when he speaks about "illegal" immigration . He is right ! Yes and there is no reason for somebody to stay illegal in this country anyways . You can't rent your own place , can't get drivers license , can't get social security , can't get a job legally . People have no access to basic things that moves their life forward so why stay illegal??? They have more chances if they went back and entered this Country legally .

I will not vote for Hillary in this life , period . https://youtu.be/-dY77j6uBHI
