The True Purpose of Superdelegates or How the DNC Lies to Convince You They Know Best

Submitted by Dark UltraValia on Mon, 09/19/2016 - 3:14pm

This whole election cycle has convinced me that the corruption (that I always knew was there) truly runs deep. The system is rotten to the core. So I decided to look up a brief history of superdelegates.

The history is a bit involved but the basic premise is that the Democratic Party, in the wake of presidential campaign losses beginning in 1968, wanted a system that would insure that the best candidate was put forward.

Really.

ALERT - DHS: We May Declare Elections System 'Critical Infrastructure'

Submitted by RantingRooster on Mon, 09/19/2016 - 2:10pm

I interrupt these regular pie fights of nothing burgers with an important update from Sane Progressive and the DHS wanting to declare our election systems "critical infrastructure".

Stop and think about that, if you can pull yourself away from gossiping at the water cooler, what would the "potential" be, if DHS took over our election systems?

Are our elections important to you? Just saying....

Taboos and Lies

Submitted by Granma on Wed, 08/31/2016 - 4:18pm

I've been thinking about the things we don't talk about (in the USA). We can talk about many things here. There are no rules forbidding it. But even here, some of these subjects are hot potatoes. And if there is an official story, parts of it are likely to be defended. It is as if we live lies, which must not be challenged.

FULL STOP!

OK, Wait a minute!

I'm hearing WAY too many people going back to talking about politics as usual, and just accepting that Bernie got screwed over in the primaries, in depth no less, but what do we do NOW? -And honestly, I've found myself getting caught up in that. But at least speaking for myself, that has to end. FULL STOP.

Here we are folks, less than a week until the Democratic National Convention and the countdown finally begins. Cue the curtain call to political theater; we've seen this all before. So then why do I feel something is different this time? Maybe because we are hoping all of Bernie's delegates make it to the floor, crash through the veneer of bullshit, and become the voices of 12 million people who were jilted by the Democratic Party.

News on the elections front

One important battle for election integrity is being waged by the Congressional Voting Rights Caucus

In particular there is H.R. 5131 Verifying Optimal Tools for Elections or “VOTE” Act of 2016.
by Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Georgia). Let your local representatives know that you are aware of the movement toward honest elections and you expect him or her to come on board.
