It's like the old Soviet Union where the party decides who the candidates will be and they let you vote for the one that chosen to be elected. IMO, both parties have openly shown they're no longer even willing to pretend to listen to the people and will now work together to control and dominate everyone. If this says anything, its that neither Hillary or Cruz can be at all trusted.

I think it shows neither party can be trusted. IMO Trump missed a golden opportunity to possibly be the first (I) to win a Presidential election, at this point I think that ship has sailed.
Republicans Didn't Even Let The People Vote In Colorado
As evidenced by their well organized attempts in many states to suppress voting, the GOP fears the public and wants to minimize turnout. And well they should. They know that going forward, their foolish embrace of the smugly ignorant religious right will cost them elections. And they're too far gone to regain rationality at this point.
I had not heard this, but looked it up and was really surprised. Colorado had decided to do that some time ago, but they also replaced a delegate that was supporting Trump in order to get Cruz the win.
A GOP Colorado Insider Group of 18 people made this decision -- the Colorado Voters never worked out that they would not get to Vote or have a Caucus.
Ted Cruz knew, because he is one of those Political Elite Insiders ...... so he "fixed" it so that only his supporters would be "chosen" by the select few. How can people be so dumb as to allow a very few Political Elite to take away their Vote? It boggles the mind.
Has this ever happened before in any state? Because I am seriously freaking out over this. This sounds absolutely insane, then CNN reports if like this

Ted Cruz's resounding win in Colorado's GOP contest this weekend provided fresh evidence that Donald Trump's campaign is still scrambling to catch up in the state-by-state delegate hunt.
Even Cruz fans, Democrats, undecided folks should be freaking out over this. WTF is going on? This China where the party tells us who is elected. WTF!!!! Everyone push this story today to everyone!
