The only thing that surprised me following the last election is that the Democratic Party wasn't forced to drop their unelected "superdelegates" that essentially allow them to ignore their voters and pick their own candidate.

Such a feature is not present in the Republican party, so it certainly isn't some universal backbone of party politics... Of course, if Republicans had superdelegates we'd probably have President Marco Rubio in the oval office instead of Trump, and I must admit that sounds preferable.
