I Have Something to Say

So Bernie Sanders is pushing for Super Delegates to choose him at the Democratic Convention, and many people are criticizing him for it, claiming that the Super Delegates he's trying to sway should choose their vote based on the choice made by the people in their states primary/caucus. With that said, most of the Super Delegates from the states Sanders already won have said they are going to vote for Clinton, even though she didn't win the majority of pledged Delegates in those states. Why is it ok for them to side with Clinton, even though she lost those states, but it is wrong for Sanders to try and convince them to choose him at the convention?

Marvin: About the "brown" and female vote. Hillary has mobilized them, they tended to vote for her not Sanders. Especially blacks. So now Hillary has to mobilize the Sanders supporters who are more white, and younger. Both parties need to pay attention to what young people want, if they hope to survive. I hope next cycle a third party emerges (call it the Liberal Party, or something), and makes both the Republicans and Democrats nervous. Both have held power for far too long, and are a slave to money. It is disgusting.
