Bernie Sanders beat Hillary Clinton by a margin of 19 percentage points in Colorado caucus straw polls this week, but the delegate count is starting to tell a different story.

Again the Superdelegates come through for Clinton. The Superdelegate System, rendering the Democratic Party undemocratic and oligarchic.
