Obama wins popular vote, has the most delegates 49%, Hillary wins the nomination

I myself being neither a republican nor a democrat believe that the popular vote is what should count. I think that the delegate votes should be banished. We the peoples votes should count for who is going to be running our country. Not another politician with an ajendas vote.

I watched an interview of a young college aged, Super delegate, who lunches with Chelsea, sorry can't remember his name. Now gee, wonder who he will vote for? I think this whole thing is unfair and unbalanced, the government according to the Constitution is supposed to be 'by the people, for the people' yet a few get to choose who are next President will be? I for one want my vote to count, it's bad enough NC voters have to wait till May to vote when choices are limited due to drop outs, but to have our votes not really mean anything in the end really sticks in my craw. I think this whole process is terrible, unorganized, unethical in some areas, unfair to voters, and needs a complete overhawling.

I, for one, certainly hope it doesn't come down to the "Super Delegates" deciding the nomination and at this point I still have hope that it won't. As I write this it's being discussed on MSNBC. I'm hoping these delegates - or at least enough of them - do the right thing and vote according to the popular vote and I'm also hoping some changes are made to this process before the next election comes along. One thing I feel fairly confident they won't do, and that's just sweep it under the rug and pretend there are no problems with the process. To say they may be hoping for a position with the candidate is a bit of an exaggeration because while this certainly could be the case with some of them it isn't with most, as many of them are just party activists in their own state or district. I'm seriously hoping there will be more people in high positions within the Democratic party who feel it's more important to follow the will of the people than there were in the Republican party in 2000. That isn't setting the bar too high, I'm afraid. Annie

The time has come for the country to do away with the whole electoral college. It was fine back when the country was new, and it was impossible to count all of the votes from every state in a timely manner. Today's technology has made it a feasable way to do the election. Put it to a vote of the people. The electoral college has no place in today's technological world. We could easily count every vote now and make the votes count. I don't know why nobody has attempted to change it yet. It's been outdated forever. So many people don't realize that their vote really doesn't count in the big picture. I mean think about it. When the real election to pick a president is held this November, the way the electoral votes are determined are they look at who won each state, then each state's electoral votes go to one candidate or the other. For example, If 51% of Kansas voters voted democrat, and 45 percent voted republican, and the other 4% voted independent, or not at all, then, the democrat running for president would win the Kansas electoral votes. These electoral votes are determined by population. It's really wrong. Our votes don't really count.
