He should have gone with something that sounded 'Murican.

Like Lew Kowalski.

Do some research on Malcolm X.

Whereas New York has a Soviet Style closed primary that disenfranchises millions of Independents, in the event that Clinton wins I will not recognize said win as legitimate.

I'll bet they're really worried about that.

New York rules have been in place for decades and somehow the Sanders campaign dropped the ball when they should've been telling their supporters to change their party affiliation last fall.

Soviet? Heh, heh. Good one Tom.

Perhaps they should have done a better job pointing out to people the ridiculous NY requirement to change your party affiliation all the way back in Oct. of 2015 Bob, but the fact that this (closed primary) has been a rule for decades does not make it ok. As I said in another thread recently, with the two-party system forced upon us, having "closed primaries" is an outrage.

But at least in California they have a reasonable deadline for changing party registration. It's May 23rd, 15 days before the election.

Unlike the Soviet Style State of New York where you have to do it over 6 months in advance.
