Hillary should also release the transcripts of her fundraising speeches for Wall Street Bankers, or admit she is a liar. She promised this to Bernie in the debates, Bernie released his tax returns, as she requested at the time, now Hillary should keep this one promise. That could convince me to vote for her.

These "so-called" 'Super Delegates' need to get out if they will not do their jobs and be truly honest about all issues regarding any/all of "them".

By having closed primaries, you are keeping lots of people who would vote Democrat. Also this is one of the ways you used to rig the primaries against Mr. Sanders. This is also one reason I'm quitting the Democrat party.

Please clawback to democracy by holding Open Primaries, Eliminating Superdelegates, Pacs, Super Pacs and Electoral college, Overturning Citizens United and providing full transparency on all political donations.

Super Delegates deny the idea and the action of democracy.
Same thing about not letting independents to vote.

Put an end to rigged elections NOW! End corporate cronyism, too, as well as crony-capitalism! Nominate 'clean' candidates by reforming campaign finance laws. Abolish the revolving door between government and the banking/finance and corporate sectors. Bring back Glass-Steagall! Be democratic in substance, not in name only.

Let's stop rigging the elections like Wasserman Schultz has so plainly done.

You are ignoring what progressives want and do not represent most of voters care most about.

DNC, resign and join the repugthuglican party where you corporate sell outs belong. Ban Wasserman Schultz from the Democrat Party, or what's left of it.

You are called the Democrat Party then please show us we have a democracy - because the way I see it now, we do not!

Not only are superdelegates unfair as they can pledge to a candidate who did not have the popular majority of votes, but there were dirty tricks to skew the nomination to Hillary when Bernie clearly was the winner in California. First, the AP media announced for Hillary the day before 6 States voted in their Primaries, then votes were eliminated by the thousands and the count is still not in here in California! Yet Hillary is announced as the presumptive nominee and Bernie is discounted! There is unrest and unhappiness due to the rigged process, and it needs to be changed at the Convention.

PLEASE DUMP HILARY CLINTON. SHE IS THE MOST CORRUPTED CANDIDATE WE HAVE AND SHE BELONGS IN PRISON ALONG WITH BILL CLINTON.
.
SUPER DELEGATES ARE STUPID

Closed primaries should be a thing of the past. We need a lot of change for our system to be truly democratic

Let Senator Sanders have a say at the DNC convention to incorporate many of his salient issues. He won 22 states and has a right to have a major seat at the DNC convention.

let the people decide,get rid of super delagates

For a Party that calls itself Democratic, y'all have made little attempt to incorporate the kinds of actions that would show your dedication to the "demos" (Greek for people). That's ALL the People, not just the ones who are enamored of incrementalism or concessions for things that should be non-negotiable.

Every registered voter in each and every State should be able to elect their States delegates. And, the candidate that represents Democrats should NOT be selected by super delegates but by the delegates that WE THE PEOPLE send to the convention. Nothing less will do.

Super delegates are part of the demo-CRAZY and need to be eliminated.
