Today, Hillary Clinton sent out the following e-mail:
"It is a bedrock American principle: we are all equal in the voting booth. No matter where you were born or how much money you were born into, no matter the color of your skin or where you worship, your vote deserves to count.
"But millions of people in Florida and Michigan who went to the polls aren't being heard. The delegates they elected won't be seated at the Democratic National Convention in Denver this August -- and that's just not fair to those voters.
"The people of Michigan and Florida must have a voice in selecting our nominee for president. I have repeatedly called for seating their delegates."
Yes, in America everyone has a vote; otherwise, we are no better than the other countries we call "foul" on for their anti-democratic schemes. The Democratic Party had no right to interfere in the primary voting schedules of Michigan and Florida. States, through the Tenth Amendment, are afforded this right. Hillary is right. The delegates of Florida and Michigan deserve to have their voices heard in Denver at the Democratic National Convention.
