    Democrats strip superdelegates of power and reform caucuses in ‘historic’ move

    Tom Perez and Bernie Sanders teamed up to push the biggest reform package the party has seen in decades.

    The Democratic National Committee voted Saturday to significantly curtail the power of superdelegates and make presidential caucuses more accessible, overcoming objections from a vocal minority of its membership.

    The reform package, pushed by DNC Chairman Tom Perez and allies of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, among others, passed overwhelmingly by voice vote at the DNC’s summer meeting here — two years after the process started.

    Perez and others hailed the outcome as momentous, saying the reforms will help welcome new people into the party by reassuring them that their vote will never be overruled by the party leaders who can vote for whomever they want for the presidential nomination.

    ———–The title says one thing the article another. Common in today’s media. The question will be how much power to sway votes will remain.
    I know they do not want to give up having the right to pick a given person over another in a primary. I am sure Hillary was big time payday for most of them.

    Ah oh. This is not good.

    Tom Perez is a Clinton loyalist. He would not do anything without Hillary’s permission.

    Maybe the Clintons decided to let Bernie have another go with the situation being similar to what happened with Tim Kaine.

    If one reads between the line, way back before the last election, Hillary rigged with Tim Kaine’s help. At the time Tim Kaine was the DNC Chair. The theory is that Tim Kaine would fix the DNC presidential nomination for Hillary, if Hillary named Tim Kaine as her VP candidate, which she did. And Hillary go the nomination, and she named Tim Kaine her VP candidate.

    The question is while the fix in is, who is going to Bernie’s VP candidate? Hillary? Tom Perez? Someone else in the Clinton organization? Maybe Chelsea Clinton?

    Also, Bernie is not a young man. If he won the 2020 presidential election, he would likely not serve a full term, with his VP becoming presidential.

    Given the Clinton’s like to max out their power-plays, Bernie would likely serve just over two years and a day of his term, so his VP would have the potential to be president for at least ten years, two four year terms and two years as outlined in the U.S. Constitution. Though, by then, the presidential in question would have become a dictator for life if allowed to govern that long.

    It is to early to tell how this will play out, but it is clear the Clintons never let go of the power they gain. The Clintons are like a forty year curse on the U.S. Thanks to the Clintons, the U.S. is on the verge of both a civil war, and also on the verge of a war with Russia.

    In spite of the Trump witchhunt, the good news is that President Trump has been making several political moves that have helped a lot of U.S. citizens. And primary turns out have been good for the Republicans in most cases. The likely only way the democrats take the house or senate in the mid-term is by cheating.

    Also, the Trump witchhunt and the censorship has destroyed the credibility of social media and the corporate media. The progressives are politically weaker than when the were in 2016. Though, the progressives are now more dangerous.

    It is always interesting the power play behind the smoke screen. Hildbeast is past being viable. Who is the power play being set up for,…..
    Chelsea dose not have Mom’s big brass b~~~~ that clink loudly when she walks or Dad’s charm. On top of that she is ugly as the day is long. At best she might be able to win a state seat, nothing national.
    Can Sander’s and mob be controlled at the level wanted inside the DNC?

    Going to be interesting to see what come of it in 2020.

    Good question.

    Two years ago, the corporate branch (including the Clintons) and the muslim branch of the democrat party were able to make a deal to share power and keep the progressive Bernie democrats from having a voice in the DNC. From this, Tom Perez became the DNC Chair and Keith Ellison bacome the Vice Chair, and since then the two men have been disagreeing on the direction the democrat party should go.

    Also, keep in mind that after the DNC 2016 convention mess, Bernie got caught taking a bribe to keep silent on his loss and support Hillary in the election. This has politically hurt him with his supporters and former supporters. So, if Bernie runs, he will need a strong VP. But, the Clintons will want a puppet to control and not a strong VP. This might create a catch twenty-two situation with them.

    This list for presidential candidates has been slim so far for 2020. I am not sure the DNC has the bench selection and political will to run a viable candidate.

    Also, the current mid-terms are a no-win situation for the DNC. If the democrats wineither the house and senate, they get gridlock and they will receive part of the blame for gridlock, especially if they wen both the house and senate. If the democrats lose more seats, they go in his hyper-drive on their Russia Collusion and Impeach Trump narratives, which is a turn off for moderates and nationalists.
