What is Democracy?

The people elected delegates to represent them. These delegates will cast their votes, during the DNC National Convention in Chicago August-19 through August through August 22.

But it looks like you're not familiar how this works.

But I understand your confusion, because you may be more familiar with how the RNC works.

For instance, when the RNC National Convention kicked off, the MAGA police confiscated all the delegates phones, and handed them a prepared platform and told that they would not be allowed to discuss it, and they are only allowed to vote yes on it, as well as Trump as the nominee.

First time this happened and a sign of things to come, as the RNC morphes into MAGA. Not discussions or dissent allowed.

The DNC works differently. There will be discussions, and a vote on both the platform and the candidates. And that's how democracy works.

According to Trump, it's:
-creating fraudulent electoral certificates
-submitting fake electors to the VP
-pressuring the Justice Department to falsely claim fraud had been found
-pressuring the Defense Department to seize ballots
-pressuring Wayne County officials to reject certifying election results
-pressuring Georgia's Secretary of State to overturn his state's election
-obstructing recounts in Wisconsin
-attempting to seize voting machines in Michigan
-firing his AG when he wouldn't lie on his behalf
-firing every official that contradicted his voter fraud conspiracy and replacing them with yes-men
-filing dozens of baseless lawsuits that all got rejected (including by his own judges)
-encouraging his minions to harass and intimidate poll workers and election officials
-scheming with loyalists to have Congress overturn the election results
-pressuring his VP to block certification
-wasting half a billion taxpayer dollars conducting fruitless audits
-inciting a crowd to "fight like hell" at the US Capital while certification was taking place

Democrats: "Republicans are the enemies of democracy!"
Also Democrats: "Let's get rid of our nominee democratically selected in primaries."

It would be interesting to see it put to an actual vote. But, then, just because you get the votes, dont mean you get the delegates. Signed, Bernie.

I guess you didn't notice -- the people DID vote for her as part of the Biden/Harris ticket. And the people keep having a say as something like $100,000,000 in donations, mostly from smaller contributors have flooded the Democratic coffers in the last day or two.

But keep shilling for the traitor who tried to overthrow the last election, if it makes you happy.

November is coming. Expect losing Republicans to throw a trump style hissy fit.

Quite interesting that for the third consecutive election the Democratic party has manipulated the process and or nomination. In 2016 they pulled some stunts to push Bernie Sanders aside to annoint Hillary. In 2020 they convinced all the candidates to step aside for Biden, in the interest of defeating Trump. Now after a fake primary campaign setup so that Biden cant lose, he steps aside and they, the party, choose someone who has not received a single vote as presdential candidate.
I dunno.

Apparently on the left, democracy means things working out the way the party elites want. That's it. People? Voters? Who dat?

According to Wikipedia, Democracy (from the Greek root words, dēmos, meaning people and kratos, meaning rule) is a system of government in which state power is vested in the people or the general population of a state.

Under a minimalist definition of democracy, rulers are elected through competitive elections while more expansive definitions link democracy to guaruntees of civil liberties and human rights in addition to competitive elections.

We get our choice at the voting booth. We vote in the primary and general elections.

Anyone can run for president, if they are a United States citizen.

She wasn't anointed as the process has been the Democratic delegates pick their candidate out of all the choices......... And guess what there was only one choice Biden and who's next in line the vice president........ But see it as you will trump has blinded the minds of so, so many.

mob rule.. nothing less

People should have a say.

We would all like to vote for the best man, but he never runs.

People don't ever have a say in American-style democracy.

Troll harder
