22. Has anyone in the party who made this mess explained to
the rest of us why this happened in the first place?

The states do control/power over elections not the national DNC. Yes...they have a say but the states set the rules and guidelines. Like Florida in 2000 the state has the final say (or if the Bush court steals it). I'm saying the Democrats of that state do have a say as to their own election.

If the struggle is over the small Conservative states picking the candidates every time then it should be changed to give the larger Liberal states a say. Right now it stinks.

Seat everyone now since you can't violate their right to have their vote counted and change the rules.

What is fair? The primary for our party Presidential candidate should happen all on the same day so everyone gets their say and pick.
