the key here is “proper primary.” I can’t remember a time when they’ve had one that wasn’t fucked up in some way.

Just to terrify you a little bit. In the 2020 election, Harris and Biden only had one candidate that regularly polled worse than they did, which was a culty Tulsi. And if you remember, out of that large field, Biden won.

The DNC has a gigantically fat thumb on the scales.

Three words: Hillary Rodham Clinton

It sure looked like Bernie was gonna kick her butt until the DNC decided they didn’t like a Democratic Socialist possibly winning. Debbie Wasserman Schultz resigned for a reason.

I don’t trust the primaries to be fair. There is too much money and power at stake to let “the people” actually decide the candidates. To me it’s the major reason everyone says both parties are the same. It’s because both candidates are picked by the same people, at least at this level. Yes I know they aren’t the same, especially now. But have you ever noticed how feckless the Democratic leadership seems to be? It’s because the billionaires are really the ones in power.

The only purpose of the staggered primary is for them to slowly manufacture your consent for who they want. The only way we're going to get an honest primary is if the entire country did it on one day like we do the general

a regular primary with enough debates, and where superdelegates are shun till the end, should be bare minimum

So long as there’s a proper primary

Hahahaha. Good one. That'll totally happen.

If the dnc had proper primaries we would have had Bernie.

If there is a primary hopefully she will perform the public service of prompting the others to distance themselves from Bidens handling of Gaza
