IS THIS THE AMERICAN WAY?

As I read that another Super Delegate has defected to the side of Obama it leads me to wonder why. As I read the letter from that Indiana Delegate, I am still convinced this sort of posturing is not of benefit to the United States of America or her people. What these Super Delegates are doing is posturing themselves to benefit their careers.

One SD from the southwest went over to Obama even though the people who voted him into office voted for Hillary. Why?

I do not elect my public officials, civil servants as they were once known, to go against the will of the majority of people who have elected them - for any reason. He was voted into office to follow the will of his people, which he has refused to do. And why did he go against the will of his own people?

Why does the media question if this competition between our candidates is fracturing the Democratic Party? How could the democratic process playing itself out to a conclusion cause a fracture within the party?

Is the Democratic Party afraid to lose all those newly registered voters who are voting specifically for their candidate and not nessessarily for the Democrat? Will the Democratic Party look away from the tried and true Democrats for the newly registered voters? And will those newly registered voters be there in the future as the tried and true Democrats have been in the past? Will the tried and true Democrats feel so betrayed they will seek representation elsewhere?

Could it be that the imaginary fracture will materialize itself due to the fact that the Democratic Party Super Delegates keep switching teams in an attempt to posture themselves better? It is, after all, a chess match, pieces keep moving until there is a clear winner.

In my opinion, this SD is simply trying to posture himself in order to manipulate his people before they have the opportunity to voice their own choice.

Do you really believe that this should be the American way?

I also feel the Super Delegate position needs to be examined, evaluated and rewritten by ordinary Democrats, not the leaders, but ordinary Democratic voters. In my opinion, it is not a fair way to choose the candidate to represent the Democratic Party.

Final Note: As a Texas State Delegate in Indiana supporting Hillary Clinton for President, I would be honored to be chosen as a National Delegate for Hillary because I believe this matter should be taken to the convention floor once all of the fifty United States have voiced their opinion.

HILLARY CLINTON FOR ALL AMERICANS!!!
