Numbers Game: Food For Thought
I am still confused as to how Hillary can say that she wants, "all American voters to be heard". Let's look at some of the facts with respect to the Michigan vote which she claims to have "won"
When it comes to Michigan she "won" 55% of the vote against no other candidates. Think about that, she was the only candidate on the ballot and still 45% of the vote did not vote for her. Her solution to the DNC was to count the 55% vote she "won" and have a primary for the other 45%. How is that right? How is that honorable. If she wanted all the votes to count then she would call for a complete re-vote in Michigan. That would be the only right and honorable thing to do. But Hillary does not want all of your votes to count. She wants to be in the White House at all cost. Even if it means becoming the Democratic Presidential candidate with a skewed vote count.
She also claims that she is winning the popular vote. In her popular vote, caucus states don't count. It's just so odd to me how she wants, "all American voters to be heard", yet in her vote count she is discounting caucus states.
Yes she won the racisit vote in Kentucky and West Virginia, but that was expected. The people in Kentucky and West Virginia have admitted that they don't vote for Obama because he's black. And they also say that they're just admiting what the rest of America is not admitting. My question to that train of thought is this one... what makes you think that she can win those votes against a white man in November?
