This is just word salad here. By definition, every election any incumbent runs in is against a constituent.

Idk much about the internal mechanics here, but having physical delegates seems dumb to me. Just pre determine points for individual states, allocate them proportional to percent won. This necessitates the elimination of caucuses of course, which is good because caucuses are dumb.
Superdelegates are really there to be able to change candidates when shyt hits the fan. For example, if Hillary was indicted and or convicted superdelegates can switch to Sanders so the party can acutally have a chance in the GE. Bernie wanting to get rid of it is self-serving, especially when he wants to keep caucuses.

But he would lose this election either way

I'd love to sit down at a bar with a couple CBC members I actually trust, like Elijah Cummings and Emmanuel Cleaver, so we can speak on what the deal is. I'm anti-superdelegate but there might be something I'm missing that could hurt the community.

My pea brain obviously isn't capable of doing so. Break it down for me, Joe.
He's a bought out politician that's on Clinton's payroll. I wouldn't trust that belligerent negro with my fishtank.


Basically another Black politician that's pimpin out his own people.

You do realize they picked the nominee this go around? Neither Hilltron or Bernie clinched it with pledged delegates.
Super delegates picked the nominee in 2008 and 2004 too because unless you are running unopposed it is nearly impossible to get to the delegate thresold withot super delegates due to the way pledged delevates areally spit proportionately in therror Dem Primary. There just wasn't a salty selfish old asshat feeding his easily manipulated lemming supporters a line of bullshyt about why he lost in those elections like we have this year.
Super delegates are a safety measure to make sure a buffoon like Donald Trump doesn't get their party's nomination. They have never overturned the will of the primary voters and alway end up supporting whoever has won the primary. All this complaining about them is nonsense.
