This election cycle, I'm voting Democratic. In them, I see the best hope for change this time around. And God knows this country could use some change in the way the peoples business is attended to.
The word "change" is being bandied about by all candidates. You hear it repeatedly. Yet, will there really be change? The Democratic Party uses a questionable and in my humble opinion, anti-democratic nominating system that includes 842 "super-delegates". These fine folks, who are not chosen by the voters, (how the hell they are chosen is probably a closely guarded secret), are un-plegded wealthy celebreties and elite party leaders, (42% of the total number of delegatges), who can vote for which ever candidate they please. Maybe it's time for the Democratic party to reform or abandon the "super-delegate" system, giving true meaning to the word "change", and to allow the people rather than the party establishment, to choose the next candidate who will run against the Republican nominee.
