If you "literally can't think of a worse process for picking a nominee," then you apparently are unaware of your party's history. We used to have a much worse system for picking nominees. They were called smoke filled rooms and they stank. Literally.

Proportional delegates is a clear headed form of representative democracy. It's the idiotic Republican winner-take-all approach that distorts the popular will. Obama only gets a few-delegates advantage out of winning Wyoming because it's so fucking small.

If you compare delegate totals to actual votes awarded to candidates, you'll see that delegate counts are pretty damned representative of our closely divided Democratic Party.
