When we the people no longer have a say in voting system then its time to rise up and revolt. I am totally disgusted with this even though I would never vote for a democrat.This is a prime example of how corrupt the democratic party is.dailycaller.com/2016/02/10/hillary-earns-more-new-hampshire-delegates-than-sanders-after-loss/

By the looks of things Sanders may very well win the popular vote but Clinton will be the nominee. If that happens, look for Sanders to run independent which could work out very well except for the fact that the same thing may happen in the GOP with Trump or Cruz running independently.

with the electoral college, would it even be possible to elect someone out of the two parties?

The electoral votes are given to whoever has the most votes in the state, not necessarily a majority, so technically a candidate could win with way less than a simple majority in the popular vote but have a landslide in the EC.

Thats because of the super delegates that our communist party injected into our voting system.

The super delegate system is a democratic primary construct to help the party favorite to win. The Electoral College is the Founding Fathers' decision to elect the President so that states get a fair say in who they elect. I think the republicans have super delegates to that are not bound to vote per popular vote.

re: Time for a revolt

I agree but I just don't know where to, or how to revolt...This season is sickening.Eddie brings up a good point of independents getting on most state ballots. could an indy get on the TOP states ballots and if he takes them, could he win?This system is confusing, but I would rather live here than UK, FRance or Spain etc. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
