I am a delegate for Hillary Clinton to the state Democratic convention for only one reason: She is the best candidate. I have been a Democrat for more than 50 years and will be proud when she becomes president. A woman president — now that’s change.
Meanwhile, the Democratic leadership refuses to recognize votes in Michigan and Florida because those states voted out of turn. Why should two states’ taxpaying people, good citizens who performed their patriotic duty to choose the leadership of this great country, be punished?
The folks who voted did not create this problem; it was the state leadership there and the problem was compounded by the (brainless) heads of the Democratic Party. Punish those states’ leaders, not the innocent voters who wish to and should be able to perform their constitutionally given right, the right to vote and make a difference.
By the way, if Obama had won in either Michigan or Florida would the vote have counted? You bet it would. My Party, shame on you.
