Porque!?

The story of Puerto Rico holding a primary might not be new as it was announced at the begining of March that instead of a caucus the semi-autonomous territory of the US would be holding a primary. The news was that they were switching from a caucus to primary, and I couldn't understand why the country was holding a caucus or a primary, or why it was going to be able to award delegates to the winner. I'm not trying to be nationalistic and deny Puerto Ricans a the right to choose who governs their commonwealth, but they are not aloud to vote in the general election for who becomes the official president, why would they be allowed to vote in an election that will determine who will run for president?? In the current democratic race where it's coming down to the delegates and superdelegates, it's possible that the Obama or Clinton could win based on delegates received from a area that doesn't really count?! Watching this story unfold, all the pundits and reporters could only say " Ha, it's kind of funny that they vote in the primary but not in the general election." No its not funny, its ridiculous, it makes NO SENSE! I sat waiting for anyone to come on, Wolf Blitzer, Anderson Cooper, shit even Shawn Hannity to come on and tell agree with me that either the Puerto Ricans vote in the general election or don't have a primary/caucus. But again, I was left disappointed, by the media, my party, my country.
