The Democratic Party presidential nomination was granted to Hillary Clinton before the
first US voter ever cast a vote. This was done via a mechanism called the Invisible
Primary.
There is no point in any us citizen who is a registered democrat to vote in a primary.
Example:
Washington state caucus results: Bernie Sanders = 72.7%

Hillary Clinton 27.1%

Washington state elected Super Delegate voting commitments = 100% Clinton:


Delegate
Maria Cantwell
Patty Murray
Jay Inslee
Suzan DelBene
Denny Heck

463 Super Delegates committed to Hillary Clinton before the Iowa caucuses.
Because the Invisible Primary reserves the deciding vote (the swing vote) at the
convention to party insiders, they have statistical control over the convention outcome
before any U.S. citizen casts a vote. The only way to surmount this tilted playing field is
for an opponent to win landslide majorities in every state which is exactly where
Bernie Sanders is today.
This is not government of the people, by the people, for the people.
This is government of the people, by the insiders, for the insiders.
