(71 posts)You are kidding me right? You want to prevent a whole block of people from voting because they are not registered with a party? Then you won't need independents for the general. How do you think Obama won? That's fine. I'm sure the Republican party will welcome independents.
People should be free to vote for whomever they and not to protect the status quo. That's why politicians don't do shit for the people. They are protected and not challenged.
If you want to shut out outside influence, then get rid of super delegates and tell your candidate to stop being beholden to big money. Super delegates were put into place to keep the status quo candidates in office. That is not democracy. How's that working out?
Bernie has proven, you do not need a super pac to raise money.
God, you Hillary supporters are so drunk from the kool aid........
