text: I am not discounting your position or your enthusiasm.  I am merely telling you that because the Democratic party has designed their system so the party Leadership can ensure that they control who the nominee is,  Oregon Democrat's votes will not affect who that nominee is.   Today, Hillary has 'won' 91 delegates.  Bernie has 'won' 65.  The Democratic Leaders or "SuperDelegates',  don't have to vote the way their state voted.  Hillary has 453 pledged SuperDelegates; Bernie has 20 pledged SuperDelegates.   Your party is afraid to let the voters choose the nominee so they set up this system.  Right now, the Republicans wish they had the same system because Trump can be nominated in spite of what the Leadership wants.
