David Hogg won a legitimate party election to become vice chair because he was popular and then was removed by tje DNC for having the wrong ideology.

They have shown us many times they will not allow themselves to change

If people start voting in primaries that can change.

Am I optimistic that it will? No. But the problem is that people who want to see change aren't voting in primaries and then they complain that their choices suck.

I don't think voting in a DNC primary will result in the most popular candidate being the chosen candidate to run as president. I beleive the DNC will choose the winner before the primary starts like they have for decades.

I don't beleive a canidate hand picked by the DNC will create positive change

Obama was an upset candidate. Hillary was the DNC choice in 08.
