I'm sorry folks of Florida and Michigan now isn't the time to start complaining your vote doesn't count. You should have been complaining and expressing your major concern your vote wouldn't count when your state legislatures went ahead with the plans for primarys to be moved up last summer even though the Democratic National Committee told them your delegates would not be seated at the Convention in August if they went ahead and moved up the dates. They went and did it anyways! And why wasn't you people complaining then and throwing a fit?
If you wanted your vote to count you should been calling your local representatives and raised cane with them to leave it alone last summer not well after the fact. I don't feel a bit sorry for the democrats in these states,and now isn't the time to whine and moan.
Will a so called do over be at all fair now to the candidates that was still in the battle back in January?
This should be a lesson to those who should have listened and followed the rules. The rules was broken last summer by the leaders of these states. They knew the consequences and the outcome of it and it should not be overturned with a Do-Over.
I wonder if the native indians who first welcomed the settlers at Plymouth Rock would like a do over now seeing the outcome of what has happened since then? How about General Lee maybe he would like a do over of the Battle of Gettysburg now that he seen how it went wrong? How about General George Custer think he would like to had a do over after his regiment got wiped out at the Battle of Little Big Horn? I wonder if President Kennedy would like a do over not to visit Dallas Texas on a fateful day in November? Next time i get a speeding ticket i will ask the police officer if i can have a Do Over?! See what kind of remark i would get from him. I know the consequences of speeding before i do it.You knew the outcome of moving up the primary dates. Now deal with the outcome.
I suggest the people in Florida and Michigan better get ahold of their state reps, and demand they change the date of primarys back to what it was so their voices and votes will count. This sure hasn't been a republician made mess this is their own doings and the democratic party leaders of these states ignored the warning and consequences. I feel you should have to live with that til the next election time.Wake up people.
