I think you're over compensating to prove you aren't really racist
Honestly I wasn't aware fuckface is a race

Huge advantage as it looks now.
This is really interesting. Iowa democratic party does not assign delegates based on the votes but they have a different mechanism. Obama used this on 2008, and since he had better ground troops than Clinton back then he got more delegates than he would if delegates were to be assigned proportionally. Sanders had better ground troops so I was expecting that he does the same. Apparently Clinton took a page of Obama's playbook in 2008, not Sanders

Superdelegates are congressmen, senators, former presidents, and generally important people within one party. Primary elections have become more democratized over time, but party seniors also want to have a say.

Cruz showing you can lie through your teeth, get caught and still win.
You mean, Clinton showing she can lie through her teeth, get caught and still win.

If anything Sanders won this round. Cruz out trumped Trump really.
Btw, I like this coin toss thing. Why don't they just decide the whole election by coin toss :D

20% of the delegates being superdelegates is crazy. Even if Sanders does well in a close race, his run will mean nothing if the superdelegates decide to make Hilary the candidate (which half of them have apparently decided to).
I haven't given a thought to election procedures outside my country before, so it's incredibly fascinating how the process of choosing a candidate to stand for election is varied by party and by state. And I'm guessing it has varied a lot over time as well.

Can you imagine. Worlds lone superpower and the world population literally at the mercy of a coin toss. :lol:


Will the US invade us again? Don't know. 50/50 chance they will.
