MODERATORS
They expect every candidate to have a chance of winning when they hold primaries. Bernie came somewhat close to beating HRC in 2016, if he had like 4 million more votes they wouldn't have been able to do anything about stopping him from running the entire nation, unlikely that they would try.
DNC is the left party, the party of progress, now and decades prior.
The party that has been running on "Everything is fine, status quo is great, we won't change anything" is the party of progress?
The party who taxes and audits the rich, the party who expands medical coverages, the party who removed money from politics until the conservative SCOTUS overturned the law with Citizens United decision, and the Party who hasn't had more than 50 senators in the past 10 years while everything has gone to shit.
If we want change we should elect the DNC, and even more importantly remove every single Republican.
Sounds like the DNC needs to do things that are actually popular with voters.
