We have a system in which our candidates are chosen not based on who has the best qualifications, but rather on who can raise the most money and get the most media attention. We have a system that does not care much about what the country as a whole thinks, but instead allows two of the whitest states in the nation to have first say in choosing our candidates every four years. We have a system which awards delegates in such a fucked up way that a person can lose the popular vote in one state and still get more delegates than the winning candidate. We have super delegates whose votes are considered to be many times more important than those of the average citizen. We have a media that focuses all of the attention on their chosen candidates and does not provide equal time to those they do not deem worthy. We have system in which party bosses decide which states should have the most say in the electoral process, and will actually deny certain states their delegates if they do not fall in line with the party's wishes. We see candidates being excluded from debates based on a criteria not by voters but by big media conglomerates.
