There Has To Be A Better Way To Pick Delegates

This video is nothing short of crazy. Delegates at the Republican National Convention will decide the next election, not voters. This has happened in the past and, in addition to this year, will happen again. However, the way these delegates are picked is simply shocking.

Ten seconds… Ten seconds is all the thousands of people who want a seat in Cleaveland get to make their claim on stage to represent their state at the RNC. The line runs through the stage and every ten seconds a new candidate walks up, makes a short cry for attention, and then leaves hoping that you remember their running number.

There has to be a better way to pick the next Republican nominee then this semi-organized chaos. This is representative democracy at it's worst.

The video breaks down a few of the delegate's speeches and the vast majority seem to be desperate calls for attention, where being memorable is much more important than political leaning or background. You are putting the future of the United States into the hands of total strangers, whose voice counts far more than the average voter.

Remember this in July when these are the people who decide who you get to vote for in November. Remember how you went out and voted, only to have your voice ignored.
