How do people feel about the delegate voting process being predetermined and orchestrated? Because I'm weird, I thought the Democratic party would support. . . democracy ("count every vote!" that sorta thing in the post-2000 era). I'm just curious how people feel about this. Obviously, Obama will win a proper Delegate count, I'm just surprised that that democratic process (and the process of delegates voting for VP) is being so overtly disregarded (obviously back-room deals probably always decided these things for all I know).
In other words, is the spectacle of Democracy less important than the spectacle of a "unified" Democratic party? Why are they incompatible?
