Question

Why Delegates and Super Delegates aka the govt. are allowed to decide who's nominee and not the people :(?

Answer 1

Members of the various parties choose their nominees in the way they see fit. Don't like it? Join a party yourself and work to change things. Start your own party.

The two most powerful parties in this country (the ones with the most members) have chosen a representative type selection process for presidential nominations. The voters in each state get their chance to have their say. Haven't you been paying attention?

Answer 2

Well, we have seen it before with the Supreme Court giving it to Bush, even though he did not get the most votes.

The people do not always decide.  It is the powers that be, and it is designed that way.

Answer 3

because it is a party.  anyone can run for president.  not anyone can run for president for the democratic or republican party.

Answer 4

It was written into the U.S. Constitution by the founders which were Benjamin Franklin,Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Robert Livingston and other political philosophers from the eighteenth century.elections allow for political participation rather than heated demonstrations, or riots
