At the risk of sounding like the Democratic equivalent of a Trump supporter, I despise Hillary Clinton and the Democratic establishment and their desire to deprive the American electorate of a fair and open presidential election. Cloaking these and other deceitful practices in the name of strategy is extremely dishonest. Taking them seriously for a moment, undeservedly, if the office of President were important enough to be assumed by a Democratic candidate, then it surely is important enough to be campaigned for honestly, thoroughly, publicly, and fairly. Is this a free and open democracy or not?? The ends do not justify the means. By betraying the ideals they pretend to possess, they show their hands as being merely the establishment, status quo politicians (in the worst definition) that they clearly are.
