The future of Michigan's delegates to the Democratic National Convention remains unclear, but Sen. Carl Levin has a pretty clear understanding of how we got this far.
Levin spoke to the Livingston County Democratic Party recently and gave a succinct history of why Michigan moved its primary to Jan. 15. He says the national party had committed to having four states go early in the process -- Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. But New Hampshire broke the rules and went ahead of Nevada.
Levin gave an easy to follow explanation of the history of the dispute, which you can watch on these two video segments. (His first remarks have to do with Livingston County's famous "triple round-about.")
Make sure you have the volume all the way up because it is a little hard to hear.
