I am so grateful I have found democratic underground. Unfortunately, I can believe all this garbage that we dig up. We no longer live in a democracy. Everything is controlled by money and power. And, in the democratic party I question why we even have primaries if the SUPER delegates can do whatever they want. As a young adult my father would try to tell me this was the way of the world, but my starry-eyed youth refused to believe. I do now, but glad my Dad is no longer here to have to watch what is going on.
