"[Superdelegates] are our party leaders and elected officials who actually can makeup their mind at any point and change their mind," Wasserman Schultz explained. "We separate those so that we don't have elected officials and party leaders running against the activists, but want to make sure are helping to diversify our convention. That is something we take great pride in. A Native-American cancer survivor Those people should have an opportunity to be delegates, too. And they shouldn't have to deal with well-known officials and party leaders. And that's why we separate them."
So there you have it. Superdelegates arent well connected establishment politicos after all. They are the most marginalized. DWS said it so it must be true.
Why you Dems continue to support such a corrupt party is beyond me.
Clinton leads 362-8 among superdelegates, who are Democratic elected officials and other party insiders allowed to support whichever candidate they like.
If you’re a Sanders supporter, you might think this seems profoundly unfair. And you’d be right: It’s profoundly unfair. Superdelegates were created in part to give Democratic party elites the opportunity to put their finger on the scale and prevent nominations like those of George McGovern in 1972 or Jimmy Carter in 1976, which displeased party insiders.
No one believes more firmly than Comrade Napoleon that all animals are equal. He would be only too happy to let you make your decisions for yourselves. But sometimes you might make the wrong decisions, comrades, and then where should we be?

I just love this "party insiders" too funny. Democrats who have stood for election in local, state, and national elections along with those who where elected to state party committees are "insiders." Too funny.

I laughed too... That Nate Silver guy and his right-wing Nazi propaganda machine known as 538.com... It's almost too much to bear... Beer... Bare...
You got to love how the useful idiots in the Dem party think that there primary votes and caucusing count for anything, Just stay home your masters have already decided for you.

The Democratic party is the most UN-democratic. They talk about being the voice of the people, but as you see they have superdelegates to usurp the will of he people. Bernie has no chance to win the nomination even if he wins every state. Superdelegates pledged to Hillary will overturn the nomination.
Chuck Todd just asked Clinton campaign spokesman Brian Fallon
about the fairness of superdelegates deciding "1/3rd" of the vote
without voter input.
Fallon didn't answer the question.
This issue is gaining traction.
