MY EMAIL TO THE DNC: DOES THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY STAND FOR JUSTICE?


Below is my email to DNC. The issue of whether or not to seat the delegates of MI and FL may end up being crucial in the race for a Democratic nominee.

--------------------------------------------
My question is, how can the DNC even CONSIDER seating delegates from two UNCONTESTED states such as MI and FL? Do you understand how corrupt that sounds to the majority of DEMOCRATS? Not only should you remove this notion completely from the table. But you should go further by coming out publicly with the FACT that Hillary Clinton's camp AGREED to the terms that these Delegates would NOT count -- due to the fact that their primaries were illegally pushed up in defiance of DNC regulations. Those states themselves must shoulder the burden of disenfranchising their  populace. Not the DNC, or Barack Obama. They made a decision, for short term glory, that cost them their populace’s vote. It’s that simple.

If you make the wrong decision here, you will be recognized on par with the woefully corrupt Republicans, who manipulated the 2000 election in Florida . Please consider very carefully how MILLIONS of Democrats will perceive you if you cave in to this strong arm tactic from the Hillary Clinton Camp. You are here to serve the American people in fairness. All camps agreed that those Delegates from MI and FL would NOT count. Do not backtrack and play politics. Take a position and explain to the American people that Hillary Clinton agreed to these terms, and you have no intention of rewarding her for strong arm tactics.

Justice must be the standard. Justice must be the measure in the Democratic party.

Does the Democratic party stand for justice?
