I Just Stay Mad at the DNC
I do not give a damn diddle squat whether you supported Hillary or Bernie, you need to care about this.
The DNC is meeting this week in Las Vegas, and they are trying to insure that we have a party with heavy corporate influence.
Dammit. Dammit. Dammit.
The Democratic Party this week plans to name 75 people including lobbyists and political operatives to leadership posts that come with superdelegate votes at its next presidential convention, potentially aggravating old intraparty tensions as it struggles to confront President Donald Trump.
Every damn delegate to the Democratic National Convention needs to be elected to that specific position and not handed it as a bribe, a reward, or a money suck.
In Texas, our only Super Delegates should be the people we elect as DNC members. They were elected to that job. So, find out who your DNC members are – both elected and appointed – and send an email to the elected ones saying you support major changes in the Super Delegate selection. Only people elected to the DNC should be super delegates. All others can get into the pile to get elected at the state convention if they want to go to the national convention to nominate a Democrat to run for president.
