Not even a pretense of democracy?

BRATTLEBORO — It'd be great if a young turnout for Bernie Sanders turns out in force in the March 1 presidential primary.

I was pleased that U.S. Representative Peter Welch stated that he will throw his support behind Sanders - support that is critical, as Welch is a superdelegate.

So, of course, I was disappointed to hear that Senator Leahy not only endorses Hillary Clinton but says he will place his superdelegate vote toward her regardless of what we-the-people-of-Vermont want, should the majority be in Bernie's favor.

Jeezum crow - not even a pretense of democracy, Pat? You lost my vote.

And Shumlin? Ah, Big Money Wannabe supports Big Money. Sigh.
