do you risk nominating candidates who then can't appeal

Here's a wild idea. Let the voters nominate their own candidates in a primary without tons of interference from the DNC and super delegates. Or you know, just allow a primary at all.

Nooooo, can't have that. Then you guys might pick the wrong candidate, you see?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Exactly. They'd rather lose with their chosen candidate than win with ours.
