    Complete rubbish when you look at the fact that it's only concerned about Democratic nominees. What about Independents, especially progressive leaning ones, getting choked out election after election? Ross Perot, until 2000, tried to fight against the trade mess and in 2000 and after Ralph Nader blew the whistle on the fact that there's not a difference between either the GOP or Democrats be it trade or any other issue. I'd rather sign a petition which gives Democracy to Independent candidates in addition to reforming the corrupt Superdelegate sham. The current petition is just a waste of time and it's not as if the petition will have any effect on the already uber-corrupt leadership in the Democratic party and its rank-and-file that keeps giving it to them ! Get back to the issues and give us real progressives who will actually fight for them even if they're not Democrat !
