Michigan Primary Gone Wrong

I really don't know what the democratic politicians are thinking of. How can you can you really have a legitimate primary without all the major candidates on the ballot? The major candidates that removed their names from the ballot to "punish" Michigan for having its primary earlier are really showing what they're made of. Don't the people of this state matter? How could you not participate in something this important.It makes no sense to vote"uncommitted" when you're really not! This is what we're instructed to do if our candidate is not on the ballot. How are all the voices of the people in Michigan being heard through this "sham" of a primary. Any candidate that is serious about all the people they would be representing would not"punish" the people who would be voting for them.They would have actively participated, have their names on the ballot, and let the process go on as it should. The childish bickering between the National democratic party and the State's Democratic committee has caused our primary to be a mockery! This type of behavior should really make us all of stand up and take a stand against what is happening. Shame on the Democratic Presidential candidates that are no shows on the ballot. It makes me wonder how we'd all be punished by those candidates if we try to change something else they don't agree with.Whatever happened to CHANGE? I'll be thinking very seriously about who I'll be voting for in the "real" election. The candidate(s) who had the integrity to do what is right, have the best chance of getting my vote. Uncommitted----not hardly.
