Let's make the superdelegates feel the Bern

[rbnyc]

Let's tell those supporting Bernie that we are grateful. Let's tell those supporting Clinton that it's not too late for them to get on the right side of history. The old way of doing things is nearly over. If they didn't get the memo, this is it.

We should overwhelm them entirely with our numbers.

1. Probably should start with calling the New Hampshire delegation...

... and tell them that by committing to supporting Clinton, they are voting AGAINST the wishes of their constituencies, who voted for Sanders and not Clinton! New Hampshire delegates really have no argument to support Clinton and claim that they are supporting a democratic voting process and gives us a question mark to ask if they deserve to be in this party, where that system should be a paramount and fundamental value.

2. Yes! (nt)

[Wilms]

3. Bill Clinton is a superdelegate.

Wow!

[SandersDem]

5. Yep

Don't think we're gonna get that one

[Ino]

4. Ask them to take a loyalty oath...

pledging to support the will of the People.

6. You wanna overwhelm them with our numbers? Do it at the polls.

They're unlikely to care about anything else.

7. That too...

...but I think that we are going to need a lot of practice demonstrating our strength to the establishment, because that's what Bernie will require of us after he wins.

8. Ok, I have to admit...

...I got excited about the idea of flooding establishment dems with messages.

But, on to Nevada.

I hate the superdelegate system, but now I'm seeing a lot of hyperbolic headlines. I am all for communicating with the superdelegates, showing our numbers and expressing our expectations. I recommend that, but let's stay balanced, accurate, and focused on the next contest.

Just wanted to add that because I don't want to add to hysteria.
