I know that so many feel that this is "their" party and that we as indys don't have a right to have a say in their party, but whoever is nominated and possibly elected as President, will be the President for ALL of us, not just the Dems or the Repubs. So I don't CARE that they don't like me having a say in "their" party. My state allows indys to vote in the Democratic primary and so I will.
