Republicans do not have superdelegates because they remain faithful to one old-fashioned conservative principle. They believe that, if one is to select presidential nominees after holding primaries with limited turnouts, those who bother to vote, and not invisible elders who presume to know better than voters, should determine presidential nominees.

B.S. It's not nearly that simple or that principled. Invisible elders DO select who the MN delegation votes for. I know that's true in other states too.
