“Corporate lawyers, lobbyists, and influence peddlers have control of the party at the very top, and almost every regular Democratic voter around the country has no idea about that — and if they did realize that, they would not be happy to know that lobbyists are writing the rules used to decide their party nominee instead of a democratic primary process.”

♲ @[email protected]:Here comes the the Democratic National Party Dirty Tricks and eventual party suicide... a decision to restore the power of superdelegates to block Bernie from getting the nomination. Un-fucking-believable.

I see a replay of 2016 flashing before my eyes...

DNC members discuss rules change to stop Sanders at convention

"A small group of Democratic National Committee members has privately begun gauging support for a plan to potentially weaken Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign and head off a brokered convention."

"In conversations on the sidelines of a DNC executive committee meeting and in telephone calls and texts in recent days, about a half-dozen members have discussed the possibility of a policy reversal to ensure that so-called superdelegates can vote on the first ballot at the party’s national convention. Such a move would increase the influence of DNC members, members of Congress and other top party officials, who now must wait until the second ballot to have their say if the convention is contested."

Democratic National Committee has (somewhat) curtailed the power of #superdelegates in presidential nominations, blocking them from voting on the first ballot. Btw, Kevin Philipps' designation of Democrats as the 2nd most enthusiastic capitalist party in the world is genius https://www.politico.com/story/2018/08/25/superdelegates-democrats-presidential-nominee-796151
