I expected some pushing forward back from the anti-electoral college crowd, not even a single post. Hmm what do I know?benjs said:
I don't think I'm ignoring anything. With the current government structure in the US government, within the context of the federal republic, the democratic-ness of the system is defined by how much gatekeeping is done by the parties. As the gatekeeping functions of the parties are reduced (and please don't make it sound like ignoring progressive voices to assure a singular voice is an exclusively DNC affair), the democratic impact is heightened, and vice-versa.JC29856 said:
Aren't you ignoring the point that the Democratic party leadership is shutting out progressive voices? Or do you think it is just coincidental that the progressives are rarely if ever backed (I posted a few examples, see Ironstache vs Myers, the guardian did an entire piece).benjs said:
In determining candidates, if I had to choose between a self-serving select few and the largely uneducated and/or ignorant population - I don't know which is less bad. Why do you feel the population is the lesser of two evils?JC29856 said:should I make my predictions on the responses from the Hill-bot email list'ers?
For now Ill quote the democratic leader Pelosi:
“I don’t know that a person can tape a person without the person’s consent and then release it to the press,” Pelosi told reporters today. “In terms of candidates and campaigns I don’t see anything inappropriate in what Mr. Hoyer was engaged in — a conversation about the realities of life in the race as to who can make the general election.”
Here is the Democrats strategy to WINNING (worked so well over the past 10 years or so!)
We're openly and admitting to rigging the "democratic primaries" (against progressives) because that's the best chance for "us" to "win". wait what?
The proof and the reason why democratic voters should "trust their process"? 1000 SEATS AND HILLIARY CLINTON!
Now I see why Hilliary email list is worth so much money! I should try to buy some or all of that list, I too have a few things to sell them
I don't feel the population is the lesser of two evils, what make you assume that?
If you want a "system" whereby the primary candidates are chosen by a select few, for example a board, then describe how it would work and we can discuss it. I'm addressing the current system in place, whereby candidates run in a primary and the winner as determined by the voters runs against the "opposing" party(s) in the general.
If voters are too uneducated and ignorant for a thriving democracy, then have the Democratic party become a public company, that way shareholders have their say and the board of directors can choose the primary candidate (on behalf of their shareholders).
This will do away with the charade of holding "democratic" primary elections and better yet save money on the primary elections while raising capital (publicly traded) for the party.
The "Board of Directors" model you're referring to effectively is the DNC with its superdelegates (arguably your biggest problem with the system), so I'm not sure why you think that'd be preferable.
On the other side of the coin, the absence of the "Board of Directors" model is closer to the GOP with their lack of superdelegates.
Model A produced Hillary Clinton as a candidate. Model B produced Donald Trump as a candidate.
I'm not sure how anyone would read your lines and your disproportionate criticism of the DNC and its members, when compared to your hard-to-find GOP criticism, and disagree with my conclusion that you feel that the population is the lesser of two evils.
In my opinion, all roads lead to destruction.

What does it mean when the biggest threat to upstart Democrats is the national Democratic Party?

3. The Candidate agrees to have a campaign budget completed six months prior to the primary and to focus on preserving at least 75% of funds for paid communications.
Instead, the Democrats have plunged into a bizarre decade-long slide, losing both houses of Congress and upwards of 1,000 state legislative seats since the beginning of the Obama era. The shocking loss of seeming presidential shoo-in Hillary Clinton in 2016 spoke to something gone horribly awry in the "permanent Democratic majority" narrative, making 2018 a vital test of the party's ability to stop the mysterious bleeding.

Obviously there's an inverse relationship between the strength of the democracy (from a purely etymological perspective) and the proportion of voters. I'm not questioning which is more democratic - I'm literally questioning which is better. What I am saying is that your 'United' States are far from that - your citizens are divisive, destructively proud, in many cases ignorant/misinformed/uneducated, easily swayed with short-sighted and unrealistic promises, and astonishingly affected by confirmation bias. I'm sure you're right that my opinion is in a very, very small minority - I'm stating on here that until American citizens value the pursuit of knowledge and the logic of decisions over their immediate needs, their desire to scapegoat, and their just-under-the-surface prejudices, making the society more influenced by the decisions of the masses (or, to use your term, more "democratic") comes with the risk that that influence yields the results of those same people. And yes, I'm even including the alternative of persons in charge who are self-serving.JC29856 said:
My focus and discussion is specific to "primaries". Every post that I have made refers specifically to the DCCC and the Democratic party and their treatment of progressive voices/choices in the primaries.benjs said:

Before I say anything else I must question your definition/opinion of the "democratic-ness" of US voting in primaries. Are you saying that gate-keeping by appointed party heads (not super-delegates) is more "democratic" than individuals with an equal vote in a system that represents all citizens? If so, your opinion is in a very very small minority.

Don't you register to a party, and couldn't you unregister from it? Is that not having your say? You think service-offering companies don't scramble to change strategies when throngs of people unsubscribe from mailing lists, etc? You don't think they'd scramble even more when a purchase cycle only comes once every four years for most people? You're ignoring the reality that people do have ways to influence parties (just like public companies), they just choose not to. Also, your logic is so incredibly flawed here. Whether 300 million elect 30 who elect 1, or 300 million elect 1, the impact of an uneducated and ignorant democracy is the same.JC29856 said:

Also - no one is shut out, just some people are better at influencing/persuading the masses than others. You might blame disparities in advertising dollars - I say your system is FUBAR until your people can stop being so damn easily manipulated by mediocre advertisements that say that Hillary Clinton was up to no good in pizza parlours, etc. You know what people should care about? Fucking policy, and what fucking results they will produce.

I believe in the old people management adage of "calling out the behavior". Don't ignore it to pretend it isn't an issue. People should be called out for the things they do. Feeding them, to me, means engaging in the argument to give it credibility.Bentleyspop said:
