You dont really get a choice on who the party chooses to prop up and runs. See, Bernie Sanders. But, hell, I've seen it ag the grass roots level in my state. The people with the power in the party decide who goes on the ballot.

It's really not very democratic, in the strict sense of the term

It's exclusionary by design

Bernie Sanders almost won, though. I'm holding out hope that the Democrats can be reformed, but I'm still voting Green.
