3. Here's the problem...
If it comes down to it, you will have politicians picking our candidate, rather than the people.

Just look at the current results.

Obama leads in pledged delegates (our votes) but hillary got around 90 more superdelegates, so she's in the lead.

I'll make this arguement again... Why the f**k are they picking our candidate?

I swear, If the person (regarless of the candidate) who wins the popular vote does NOT win the superdelegate also, I'm done with politics.

No more voting, no more blogs, nothing; because it will mean that what we vote for doesn't really matter. It's disgusting. You put all your effort into something, and in the end, despite what they tell you, if it's close, you don't get the decision. They take it away from you; regardless of party.
