We are the DEMOCRATIC party, and we should act like it. Our candidates should be chosen by the people of the Democratic Party not some group who thinks they know better than everyone else!

We should do away with superdelegates (and maybe regular delegates if that is feasible) as well as caucuses and base it on the will of the entire party equally!

Do we believe in equality and democracy or don't we? Do we believe in the people or not?

Some of the posters above mention Trump, but they forgpt the most important thing-Trump only won because electoral system ignores the will of the people! Had it not been for the anti-democratic electoral college Hillary would be president now. When we put the power in the hands of the people we win!
