Something Is Wrong with the Democratic Primaries!

All those people voted for the wrong candidate. Their votes should be thrown out, since they were for the wrong person. We should simply ignore all of those primary elections and go with the loudest people at the convention. That's the true and fair way to decide who the nominee should be!

More people went to Bernie's rallies. More people marched in the street. More people feel really strongly that Bernie should be the Democratic candidate. Votes? Who cares? Delegates? Well, they're just based on those incorrect votes by low-information voters. Let the people who really understand what's at stake decide!

Over 3 million more people voted incorrectly, so the primary elections were obviously invalid. Time for the right people to take over things and make the election go correctly. Enough of this voting nonsense.

SAY IT LOUD!
