>I agree, but Super-delegates are the key. You can't win the nomination without them and they can vote for whom they want. Bernie's been tearing up the primaries, but hillary is leading substantially becuase of the "superdelegates" who will vote for her regardless. Its a complete sham...

Except that Hillary has earned more regular delegates, too. https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=democratic+delegate+count&eob=m.09c7w0/D/5/short/m.09c7w0/ says:

Clinton Sanders
Pledged delegates 1,683 1,362
Superdelegates 522 39
