    The sad thing is that the primary process is entirely controlled by the state parties. There is nothing in the way to reform but Democrats. There ought to be crazy outrage that the Democrats run such an undemocratic process, but too many Democratic supporters bristle at any criticism of the party.

      Agreed. The problem is that people have fallen into such a defeatist complaint loop that they don’t vote anymore. So let’s get everyone doing their part, and expose the flaws or corruption left behind. We’re not changing anything by blaming the DNC or establishment Democrats if we don’t actually participate when it’s time to vote.
