Some historians suggest that one of the primary driving forces of the spread of Christianity was that it got pretty popular with women. Despite purges that focused largely on men, as long as there were a bunch of Christian women running around the Roman authorities were fighting a losing battle.

The national committees aren't part of the election system. They're private clubs. While the elections work fine and the offices work fine, the fact that the DNC didn't even pretend to follow their own rules is abhorrent.
Remember, Debbie Wasserman Schultz was a Clinton staffer during her unsuccessful run against Obama, then she was appointed to the DNC and rigged the primaries in favor of Clinton. Then, after she was ousted from the DNC she immediately began working for the Clinton campaign again.
That's not an indictment of the entire system. That's an indictment of the Democratic National Convention and, depending upon your reading, the Clinton Campaign.

Chuck E Cheese was founded by a tech entrepreneur who was disappointed that he couldn't buy beer at Disney Land. When it became clear that a full theme park was going to be too much, he downshifted to child casino and pizza & beer.
