Should we be reaching out to superdelegates, just to let them know we're thinkin' about 'em?

I bet they'd appreciate that, you know... knowing they're so popular and stuff? And it wouldn't hurt none I'm sure, if while we were telling them we were just saying "Hi!" we asked who they were running against in their next election. It wouldn't hurt, would it?

I've seen it and what stands out is that 150 of them are superdelegates because they're DNC members. cherokeeprogressive Feb 2016 #2

Since I already had all the addresses for the politicos in my state, it was easy to do a group email "encouraging" them to listen to the will of their voterswhen it came to their superdelegate duties.

Short, sweet and to the point. At least they know someone is watching.

In my FB Bernie groups, and just the link in the ones who reach across the country. If we all let our people know that we think they jumped the gun on declaring before the people have spoken, they may agree and go back to undecided.
