HRC would have been nominated without the superdelegates...that proves we don't NEED them.

196. Vetting has nothing to do with your proposal to restrict super delegates ability to campaign

Your proposals will not work in the real world. Vetting has nothing to do with your proposal to ban super delegates from campaigning for and making endorsements of candidates during the primary process. Vetting is only applicable to pledged delegates. In any event your proposal would not work under DNC rules. The concept that one could ban a super delegate from campaigning for and endorsing a candidate during the primary process will not work in the real world.

Texas does not have voter registration by party and so one can vote in either party primary but then cannot change party. I would love to change this in that the GOP engaged in operation chaos in Texas to hurt the party on more than one occasion. I want closed primaries and only members of the Democratic Party should be voting on the nominee of the party.

Ken-Beto may be joining the real world. I have given a good amount to various candidates and I was one of a number of "hosts" at a big dollar fund raiser held at Richard Mithoff's house for Hillary Clinton last year. Richard is a trial lawyer and a major bundler for the Clinton campaign. He had a huge tent on his front lawn that held several hundred people and raised more than three million dollars for Hillary. That tent was amazing. There is a similar event at the Mithoff house next week where the minimum donation is $500 and the required donation to be a host is $5400. It appears that Beto may be getting ready to join the real world and actually make a real run against Carnival Cruz.

I hate Carnival Cruz and I am glad that Beto is seeing the light and will be trying to run a real campaign even if he has to deal with bundlers and trial lawyers like Richard. Beto is joining the real world and we may be able to get rid of Carnival Cruz.
