I’m pretty sure that’s for the first ballot only.

Let's say you are correct. Obama controls the DNC through Perez. It is unlikely Hillary gets the nod. If something like that happened, all heck would break loose even if it was someone else. There would be a big risk of voters being angry and staying home on election day. There is still plenty of time for someone else to get in, but Joe would have to get out. Right now 2/3 of the polls go to the commies and 1/3 to the perceived moderate, Biden.

That’s an important point that works against Hillary. Let’s say it’s a brokered convention. I can see Biden’s delegates switching over to Hillary on the second ballot. But Bernie’s delegates certainly would not.

So Hillary would need Warren’s delegates to get the nomination. “Hey, Liz. Release your delegates to me and the next seat on the Supreme Court is yours.”

Unlikely, but possible.
