6. Have you ever gone through the endorsement process? You have to start by attending a caucus

which is generally considered a disenfranchising process.

Each caucus is limited on how many delegates it can stand for the next meeting.

The next one, too, is limited on how many delegates it can stand to the next stage. And, of course it has to include equal number of men and women. I have not attended any for many years so perhaps now it has to include a certain percentage of African Americans, gays, transgenders..



Thus, not “any voter” can participate” in the endorsement process.
