If Bernie Sanders wins the New York Democratic primary, some superdelegates vow to back Hillary...

9. Superdelegates are antidemocratic.

They exist for only one reason: To deliver the nomination to a favored candidate of the establishment against the will of the party electorate.

They need to be eliminated. Not for 2020, but immediately...mid-2016 race; since that's impossible, they should feel a deep obligation to be, yes, robots, and vote the will of their electorates so as to functionally eliminate their role in the process as being anathema to the values of the Democratic party.

I never thought I'd say this...but the winner-take-all, no superdelegates primaries of the GOP mean that their primary process is both more transparent and more democratic than that of the Democratic party. They run their primaries more in line with our values than we do. That should be a point of shame.

They shouldn't have free will...only a beholden obligation to the will of the party voter-base.
