16. Stop Doing Fuzzy Math
1) In Florida the break down was Clinton 50%, Obama 33%, Edwards 14%, Kucinich 1%, and the other candidates combined got 2%. You can't give Obama 40% if he did not earn 40%.

2) If you strip the delegates in half you might as well not honor them at all. This is not the Three-fifths compromise of 1787. In reality an apology by the DNC to the voters of Florida is in order. Punishment should never have been dealt to the voters, but to the supper delegates that were seen as troublemakers.
