Re: ZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (none / 0)

If the elected delegates from FL and MI are seated as elected in the existing primaries, the nomination is illegitimate to the extent that those delegates influence the voting.

Neither election was in any was fair or democratic. Turnout in both states was highly skewed in favor of one candidate. Seating Michigan as it stands disenfranchises 45% of the electorate; seating Florida as it stands largely disenfranchises AA's and younger people.

There can be no legitimacy with the existing delegations seated without applying penalties and corrections in such a way as to minimize the damage of the disenfranchisement of those elections.

So, you favor a revote, right? Urge Obama to work for that in both states. Then we will have delegates with no taint.
