Texas Dems Executive Director discusses superdelegates

Bernie never did support having superdelegates, no matter what Warren and others say.

[@ginaweith9475]

Correct. He wanted them eliminated. The DNC wanted to keep them. They compromised with superdelegates on the second ballot. Everyone knew at the time they made the ‘compromise’, the DNC would do whatever they needed to do to make sure Bernie would never get 50% of delegates.

[@da96103]

There were super delegates in the first round in 2016, so Hillary's plurality was questionable.

[@elijahculper5522]

Warren didn’t say that Bernie supported superdelegates or that she supports them. She said that her position now is the same as his was in 2016. She doesn’t like that superdelegates are there, but since they are, she’s going to try to use them to her advantage. She wants to stay in the race until the convention, force it to be a brokered convention, and then try to make a winning coalition out of the delegates whose votes are up for grabs. That’s what Bernie did in 2016. He tried to get the nomination despite another candidate getting a majority of the votes cast and delegates. Politicians, Sanders and Warren included, pursue power. Their opinions change to match their current position. Warren’s position now is similar to Bernie’s in 2016. So she’s dusting off his playbook. And Sanders is just trying to change the convention rules mid-primary because now he thinks doing so would benefit him.

Krystal must have taken pity on this poor schmuck tap dancing as fast as he could to say nothing that would get him in trouble with his bosses. He had to dribble out all that word salad defending super delegates or he would have been fired immediately. The Texas state party and the county parties are a joke. The party hacks are all Biden and Hillary'/Warren supporters and Bernie haters. Most "normal" people "like" the 2 establishment parties about as much as they "like" their private health insurance. This boomer native Texan voted for Bernie on the first day of early voting and drove 2 hours to see him in San Antonio last Saturday when we all found out together he won the Nevada caucus in a landslide. I'm not very optimistic about the Texas primary because we have too many low information voters who have been inundated with Bloomberg's slick tv ads and get all their political news from the tv networks, the NY Times and the Washington Post.

[@angied1178]

He's an "executive" in the Democratic party... And according to his sentiment his vote should count more than yours and mine

[@elijahculper5522]

Jessica Scoullar Superdelegates are either elected officials (who have a mandate from their constituents), retired elder statesmen (who held a mandate from their constituents for an extended period of time), or DNC officials (who were elected by their local DNC chapters, where registered Democrats could have voted, giving them a mandate from voters). The superdelegates’ votes count more than yours because they were given a mandate for their vote to count more. If you don’t like it, run for Congress or hang out at dnc meetings and run for a leadership position in the party. Nobody’s stopping you.

[@jessicascoullar3737]

Elijah Culper lots of people would stop me because I am not American. Why does the super delegates include lobbyists? That seems like a massive conflict of interest.

[@elijahculper5522]

Jessica Scoullar There are no super delegate seats set aside for lobbyists. Every sitting Democratic Governor and member of Congress is a superdelegate. Any living former Presidents, Vice Presidents, DNC Chairs, or former members of congressional leadership (Speaker of the House, Senate Majority Leader, etc) are also automatically superdelegates. The rest of the superdelegates are people who have been elected to dnc leadership positions within their state. Some of those people may happen to be registered lobbyists, I don’t know. But they won an election to become superdelegates nonetheless. And while the elections for local dnc leadership aren’t as well publicized as elections for other offices, registered Democrats can find out where and when they are on their chapter’s website and show up to vote. Every superdelegate has a mandate from voters who knew that they were voting for superdelegates when they went to the ballot box. Is it “democratic?” No. But is it a fair way to run a representative republic? Yeah. The US has never claimed to be a direct democracy. We elect leaders with a better understanding of the issues and candidates to vote on our behalf. That why we use congress instead of trying to pass laws through national referenda. And it’s why we use institutions like superdelegates and the electoral college to help pick the president. These institutions serve as a backstop to protect against mob rule. And they guarantee that the people who have the most say in how things should be run are the most qualified to do things well. I’m a foodservice worker with no political experience. My opinion should matter less than the opinion of a dedicated civil servant who has spent their life analyzing public policy and who received a mandate from voters to vote on their behalf.

[@katherinemorelle7115]

Byron Brown he identities as a democratic socialist, but his policies are all solidly social democracy. Nary an actual socialist policy to be seen. His policies are reminiscent of FDR, not anything actually socialist (socialism being the worker ownership of the means of production). The closest his policies get to socialism are the worker representation on corporate boards, and the support for worker co-ops. His identity and his policies are from two wildly different ideologies. Socialism is anti capitalist. Capitalism cannot coexist with socialism. Social democracy can, however. It’s basically capitalism with regulations and a big safety net under it.

Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless As wind in dry grass Or rats' feet over broken glass In our dry cellar Shape without form, shade without colour, Paralysed force, gesture without motion; Those who have crossed With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom Remember us-if at all-not as lost Violent souls, but only As the hollow men The stuffed men. II Eyes I dare not meet in dreams In death's dream kingdom These do not appear: There, the eyes are Sunlight on a broken column There, is a tree swinging And voices are In the wind's singing More distant and more solemn Than a fading star. Let me be no nearer In death's dream kingdom Let me also wear Such deliberate disguises Rat's coat, crowskin, crossed staves In a field Behaving as the wind behaves No nearer- Not that final meeting In the twilight kingdom III This is the dead land This is cactus land Here the stone images Are raised, here they receive The supplication of a dead man's hand Under the twinkle of a fading star. Is it like this In death's other kingdom Waking alone At the hour when we are Trembling with tenderness Lips that would kiss Form prayers to broken stone. IV The eyes are not here There are no eyes here In this valley of dying stars In this hollow valley This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms In this last of meeting places We grope together And avoid speech Gathered on this beach of the tumid river Sightless, unless The eyes reappear As the perpetual star Multifoliate rose Of death's twilight kingdom The hope only Of empty men. V Here we go round the prickly pear Prickly pear prickly pear Here we go round the prickly pear At five o'clock in the morning. Between the idea And the reality Between the motion And the act Falls the Shadow For Thine is the Kingdom Between the conception And the creation Between the emotion And the response Falls the Shadow Life is very long Between the desire And the spasm Between the potency And the existence Between the essence And the descent Falls the Shadow For Thine is the Kingdom For Thine is Life is For Thine is the This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper.

So the code “party activists” is actually “party insiders”. These are people who are not busy with children and having enough money to pay bills. These are people who can take time for functions, spend disposable income on everything from gas money to clothes for functions and babysitters to have the freedom to participate. These are people who have the right world view to help them get elected into positions in the party by people who share that worldview. These are people who can successfully bring in donating friends and associates. And then these very special party insiders pick superdelegates. And let’s remember that some of these superdelegates are lobbyists, and politicians who take donations from the corporate interests or people like Bloomberg who look at a politician and say, “I bough...I, I, I got them”. THIS-Exactly THIS-is why there are 100,000,000 Americans who don’t bother voting.
