Only one question for Hillary
Here is the one question that Hillary should be asked: If Obama had won FL and MI, would you be demanding today that all the votes be counted and all the delegates be seated?

1. No
This has been another edition of simple answers to simple questions.

2. and conversely: If Obama had led in those states wouldn't you ALL
be talking about democracy and letting all the votes count? And, wouldn't Obama be leading it?

3. No, Obama's point has ALWAYS been to follow the rules.

4. Well, that is because the rules favor him...but, he did advertise in
Michigan. There was a significant campaign to vote "uncommitted" so those delegates could later choose him at the convention. So, that IS breaking the rules.

5. so you admit
that Hillary is being opportunistic in her endeavors rather than genuinely caring about democracy or civil rights?

6. No more than Obama is. That is why he advertised heavily
to vote "uncommitted."
