Were you unaware of the superdelegates prior to Bernie running? Is it your suggestion that Bernie was unaware seeing how he's been a superdelegate himself?
Sanders supporters seem to get all their information from right-wing hates sites. Why is it they spend so much time there?
Do you suppose some of them are actually right-wingers trying to promote the Bern?
I'm trying to wrap my mind around how your brain works.
Your likely response to Susan B. Anthony: "Were you unaware that women don't have the right to vote?"
Susan B. Anthony: "But what does that have to do with right or wrong? Shouldn't we change things?"
The funny thing is that Hillary supporters mostly support her because they think she is electable, with her immense support among African Americans and loyal Dems, and count on the "berniebots" to vote for her. I am voting Jill Stein if she is the nominee and I know lots of others who will do the same or stay home as they refuse to accept being locked into an abusive political system. I will continue to phonebank for Bernie until the convention though. I have already phonebanked 3000 people so far this election.
Should be interesting with the DNC in Philly this year.

She is in danger of losing Bernie supporters.
One "pro" of consensus decision making that I always liked (there are a LOT of cons-- doesn't work in many situations) was that after the process was finished, everybody felt invested in the final outcome. Everyone had their say, so they couldn't gripe too much. They kind of had to go along with the result. That isn't true of a rigged primary. Many people will feel alienated after the Democratic National Convention.
So are things about contrails and shark spies and Bernie being a communist and running a fraudulent campaign.
Yes, but none of those things resulted in petitions from liberal progressive organizations with tens of thousands of signatures asking Debbie Wasserman Schultz to step down and for superdelegates not to pledge before the convention.
I urge everyone to donate to Tim Canova, he is the progressive challenger to Debbie Wasserman Schulz for Congress. Getting DWS chucked out of Congress would be great. He's a great guy and a strong ally of Bernie (he was on his banking advisory committee in Congress). https://timcanova.com/

I'm totally on board with chucking DWS. Never did like her.
Deflect, deflect, deflect. This topic is not and was not about Susan Anthony.
Tell me HOW Bernie was unaware of the superdelegate process and WHY, if it was so offensive to him, that he did not run as an Independent.
NOW that the primary is halfway underway - the Bernbots want to suddenly change the process. Sorry, not gonna work this go-round.
Do you want him to run as an independent? It's a possibility. That's pretty much what a rigged primary process invites--disillusioned voters willing to support an independent candidate.
DWS disinvited the great progressive and vice chair of the DNC Tulsi Gabbard from the debates when Tulsi criticized the absurd debate structure set up by DWS, which gave all the momentum to the Republicans:
