Playing By The Rules

A reader writes:

My question to you and anyone else who may be interested is: Why is it that the Democrats who played by the rules are now to be punished?

I am a 51 year old white woman with two daughters who live, work and attend school in Florida. Both of them played by the rules and did not vote in the Florida primary as they were told their votes would not count. Why is no one concerned about their disenfranchisement?

Why should people who broke the rules and voted be granted better treatment than those who did the right thing?

Unfortunately, I already voted (Calif primary) and now wish I could take my vote back. Hillary Clinton is not the person I believed her to be, and as a long time feminist I am very concerned her campaign has ruined the chances of women of the future.

 

Women will recover from the Clinton debacle. But the answer to my reader is a simple one: the rules are for the little people, not the Clintons.
