Explain. 

Many states (surprise, like Hillary's New York) required people to be registered Democratic voters in order to vote for the Democratic seat. Unfortunately, most Bernie supporters we're third party, had never voted before, or were Republican voters tired of the horseshit. This meant that NONE of this majority of Bernie voters were actually allowed to vote for the Democratic seat.

 

I understand the reasoning for requiring a registration, so I'm not dogging on that. But if they aren't going to include a legitimate third seat in debates that can be chosen by those unregistered with the DNC or Republicans, then they shouldn't be allowed to require registration. That all said, there were a number of Bernie protests at Hillary rallies, but the ever-controlled media didn't really pay too much attention to it.

Both parties do that, and it has to be done. Otherwise you have members of one party voting in another party's caucus. They can vote for the weakest candidate effectively sabotaging the opposition's ticket. Iowa lets you register for one party or another so long as you also check for a portion of your taxes to go to said party. This let's people vote freely, and discourages troll voting from the opposition. 

Oh and Hillary was the weakest Democratic candidate in years. Voted for the Iraq War. Voted for the Patriot Act. She was in favor of 100% illegal immigration amnesty (this would have erased borders and caused chaos). Anti-medical marijauna. Anti-gun rights. Pro-Keystone XL. Pro-Sopa/Pipa.
