19. The rules specifically contradict you. Winning the most PD doesn't get you the nomination
You need an outright majority and I don't think SDs are required to regard PDs as representing the will of the people, especially if Hillary leads in elected delegates but caucus states put Barack over the top. But in the end some SDs may look at it that way--and they will vote for Obama. Others will not and they may not vote for him. In the end, he needs a majority of the delegates. That is how you win the nomination. If he gets them then he wins--right now he doesn't have them.
