    My bad, I meant to say that as far as the Constitution is concerned, the parties can pick up their candidates however they want.

      Well that actually is in the Constitution, so you’re kinda right. The first amendment promises “freedom of association” which is exactly what these parties are doing. They’re choosing who to associate with as their candidate for president. They are voting, the delegates I mean.

      The other guy is just upset because they didn’t personally ask him. But I guarantee he doesn’t donate to or volunteer for any local candidates.
