trashhaloPoll: A historic number of Americans don't want a Biden-Trump rematch
The parties don't care what people want/need. Occasionally putting the lipstick on the pig fools too many people for them to care.
hihusiovoters select these candidates via primaries and general election, though.
DeceptichumYeah, just look at the DNC and Bernie. Clearly chosen by the voters and not at all manipulated by the party to get the result they wanted.
demvoterYou still believe the vote was rigged by the DNC after all these years? Holy shit.
lunar_parkingDo you have any idea how influential media is? When you have MSNBC and CNN plus various others talking about how Biden is the only viable option again and again and again, you can't ignore the influence of that. He won South Carolina after the endorsement of a very popular and influential corporate Democrat there. The media along with the DNC saw that as the opportunity to rally around Biden. Everyone drops out and endorses him, and there you go. I'm oversimplifying a bit for the sake of brevity, obviously, but bottom line, Biden was chosen and supported to defeat Bernie because they couldn't accept the possibility of a politician like Bernie winning. He was a threat to capital and he was extinguished from the race.
Not to mention the DNC leaked information and ways to sabotage him (ex. Trying to use that he was Jewish against him$
They’ve literally fucking admitted to it and apologised, and you still eat the Lib propaganda that he lost fairly?
TheRtRevKaiserName calling isn't really in the spirit of this instance. You can argue and still be nice.
Oh joy the reddit moral prude police have found the place.
Please protect my delicate ears from the naughty words!
I don't care about your language, but I do care about how you interact with other users. Be civil.
Does the word superdelegate mean nothing to you?
It just factually is rigged as long as the system is in place.
Superdelegates serve a valid purpose. If the Republican party had them we might not have been subjected to four years of Trump.
