Obama has won 624 delegates but has been given 106 super delegates for a total of 730.

If it is for the people by the people the tally should be Clinton 625 vs Obama 624.
And if Florida and Michigan had their delegates count she'd have a hell of a lot more than 625 and this wouldn't even be an issue.

It's a political party they can make up their own rules. The problem with Americans is that most think they only have TWO choices and never even consider someone else even though the GOP and Dem nominees are complete shit most times.
