Agree with you here.

The DNC would serve the democratic voter better by

1. Scrapping the "super delegates" asap - Help Obama

2. Holding a do-over in Michigan and Florida. - Help Clinton

Thus evening things out and also being a better representative of the people.

One without the other will clearly tilt things in one candidates favour. Avoiding them will lead to issues posted earlier.
