The Colvin Report: The 21YO Super Delegate


So, you didn't believe me, you thought all your 'Super Delegates' must be people you can count on. Well, I bet you didn't count on this.

In Wisconson, Jason Rae was elected to a 4 year term to the Democratic National Convention as a Super Delegate when he was 17 years old. Granted, he is a 21 year old junior in college at this point and is now old enough to vote, but is it right that his vote is worth more then the town he came from? I sure hope this counts as an excused absence.

I'll tell you one thing, Ms. Clinton wants his vote and the hundreds of normal people in his 'Super' position. I think its naive to think these delegates wont come into play. Will it be the collapse of the Democratic Party's nomination process?

Don't take my word for it, just watch as Chelsea Clinton wines and dines them.
