It's a political party and they have rules, no one has forced Sander's to join the Democratic Party.

If the Democratic Party deems it's in there best interest to go another direction that's there choice, and Bernie can avoid this by coming in with enough delegates to avoid a brokered convention. The other thing to consider is that the superdelegates are dem office holders, party chairs, etc. in other words folks that a vested interest in making the sure the down ticket candidates have a fighting chance to win.

Listen be honest, you guys are looking at this with a jaundiced eye in that you think Trump's best shot at winning along with keeping the Senate is having Karl Marx Jr. on the Dem ticket, that puts you and many Dem party chairs in agreement......How about that!! :thumb:

Bold made me giggle.  :lmao:

Pretty much agree though.  Bernie will sink the Dems and the down ticket.  They need to do all they can to avoid this....but still, it’s nobody’s fault but their own that they are now forced to overrule democracy (again).  They jerked around for three years like fools chasing Trump out of sour feelings of losing instead of devising a plan to win.  Loser do this.

I wasn't disagreeing with you.   My main point was many on here who would complain about this also think the govt should control many aspects of our lives.

That's right rules, it is what it is.

Well the irony here is fucking amazing. The Dems went on for 3 years on how unfair the electoral college is and that they want it abolished. Now they are embracing it to screw bernie.
