🔴 Why is today's headline grabbing vote re: DNC superdelegates regarding a ban from the 1st round vote both a farce & an insult to critical thinkers?

✔ 1. Even if a progressive wins, the DNC can force it to a 2nd round vote...

forapeoplesparty.org/press-release-… forapeoplesparty.org/press-release-…
...just as they did with Wallace. The DNC controls the rules of the convention! As we have already seen, they can ignore, change, or eliminate their own rules at any time.

✔ 2. If they really wanted to keep progressives, they would do away with superdelegates altogether...
... They would not have passed the rules they did in June which enable one person, Tom Perez, to disqualify someone for not being a "faithful" Democrat.

✔ 3. The DNC's new loyalty oath rule is potentially more effective than superdelegates in blocking progressives...
... from running for president.

This is just more of the same "smoke & mirrors" by the Democratic party.

The far more dangerous new loyalty oath is discussed in our June Press Release:

🔴 Is the DNC really getting rid of superdelegate power by not allowing them to vote in the first round? No. It's just a clever way of trying to get progressives to think they are reforming.

commondreams.org/news/2018/06/2…
IF a progressive were to win the Democratic nomination, the DNC can activate the superdelegates by forcing the vote into a 2nd round because they control the rules and bylaws of the convention (just as they did with Henry Wallace).
The progressive is then eliminated in the 2nd round when superdelegates get to vote. Remember the reason superdelegates came into existence was to block progressives from winning.

If you vote for "Republicans" you are voting for a totalitarian America. You are voting for the trump family, business and wealthy politicians to get wealthier at your expense. You are voting away your own rights.

They will always need an enemy to supposedly be "protecting" you from. When they run out of outsiders to go after they will begin to turn on your own citizens, as they are already doing to blacks and democrats, eventually you or someone you love will be the target.

In an atmosphere where all it takes is someone to report you for suspicious activity to make you a target, neighbors begin to turn on neighbors and family on family when there are disagreements. It becomes easy to "get revenge" by turning someone in even if they did nothing.

1-The evening of the 22nd of June, Miss #SarahSanders (#WH press secretary) went for dinner with her family to this little place called ‘The Red Hen’. It seems that she was unceremoniously kicked out &harassed some more all the way across the street to the next restaurant
2-It seems somehow this incident has created some sort of mob-mentality wanting to harass Miss Sanders that has gotten to a point in which she now needs protection.

3-What kind of person chases somebody down the street based solely on political opinions?

Short thread on importance of even the smallest elections:
BEGIN
1) My small coastal town has 3 seats up for city council next month. #vote
2) Of those running for city council, 5 believe in climate change, 4 don't. All but 2 candidates GOP. 3/5 climate believers here GOP. #vote
3) Last city council election, only 20% registered Dems voted, because they saw majority of candidates were GOP and they dismissed them.
