  1. What Bernie did in 2016 was much worse. He had already lost the election, and asked that the superdelegates to switch sides to him anyway. He was making this argument in late June, when every vote had already been cast and Hillary had 55.2% of the popular vote and 54.4% of the pledged delegates. It wasn't a hypothetical scenario he was speculating about, Bernie was literally saying that the election should've been overturned to make him the nominee. Also, eliminating superdelgates isn't sufficient. What actually needs to be done is eliminating delegates entirely. Just hold a primary in every state, on the same day nationwide. Whoever has a majority of votes becomes the nominee. If nobody has a majority, then hold a runoff a week later. Or better yet, use ranked choice voting in the primary. No more caucuses, no more different rules for different states, no more Iowa and New Hampshire getting inflated importance because they go first. Just a simple nationwide election. With the voters and no one else getting to decide the nominee.

  2.  BLAIR M Schirmer  You're a blithering idiot. The superdelegates can't be "released" for the 1st round of convention voting.

  3.  @GeorgePiazza  That depends on how big of a plurality it is. If Bernie has 45% of the delegates, you'd be right. If he has a plurality of 30%, would that still be enough to say he's the obvious winner and should get the nomination? Also, you're a complete fool if you think the federal government would cease to have power if people just stopped voting. What would happen there is that it would solidify into a dictatorship.

  4.  BLAIR M Schirmer  How the hell did the DNC "steal" the nomination in 2016? The nomination went to the candidate with 55.2% of the popular vote and 54.4% of the pledged delegates.

  5. Meaning, she's a woman who had the audacity to run against Saint Bernie.

  6. Bernie literally did argue in late June 2016 that the superdelegates should hand him the nomination, even though he'd lost the popular vote and the pledged delegates by a wide margin.

  7. Which is meaningless. Superdelegates were never awarded on the basis of winning states.
