The Democrat Party, the real party of voter suppression?

[BobPlumb]

Democrats should be forever embarrassed over this?

Yeah......they caved to dopey political pressure from loud dummies who believe in weird shit.

I am not a Democrat.....but I am embarrassed that so many of my countrymen buy into this crock of shit.

Now.....would you like to address the differences between a convention platform vote and an actual public vote for political representation?

 

[HelenaHandbag]

They suppress the votes of their own voters.

Anybody ever heard of the super-delegates to the DNC?

Actually, I am more interested in addressing what a convention platform vote and an actual public vote for political representation have in common. The most important of which is that every eligible vote should count. I'm sure that the democrat delegates at the convention thought their votes counted up until the moment shown in the vidieo. Logic dictates that a voice vote is used when the results of the vote is obvious. If not obvious, then the voting should be performed by more countable means. Of course this change in the platform had a predetermined outcome before the vote was made. They did not have time to deal with a paper vote that late in the convention. They had to satisfy those potential voters (for president) that cling to their religion.

If the democrats will so blantly cheat a vote at their convention, don't you think they will cheat at the ballots if they can find a way?

Why, then, do you not address the republican caucuses that determine candidates with a closed-door, no-transparency vote by a small group that may or may not represent voters?

You are welcome to start a thread about that off subject topic. I would love to know if you know of evidence that they violate their own procedures or not.

Contentious issues rather meaningless to US Politics as a whole since candidates make their own platforms.

As for all important party rules....puhleeze; conventions are there to send their candidate out on the best foot forward possible. Strong opposition has been squelched by both major parties in the past and will be in the future as to give their nominee maximum momentum.

 

[hortysir]

No such thing

Republicans must have nothing to offer the middle class......

Rules, we don't need no stinking rules! We will say and do anything that will get Obama reelected.

Grandma's comment is dead on, in context with the OP, and demonstrates the fatal flaw in BobPlumb's arguments. Party platform committees do vote representatively: this is called American republicanism.

Bingo! They will, they have, and they DO.

It is an attempt to change the topic which is a blantant rule violation at the Democrat Convention that suppressed the vote of their delegates.
