The last fair primary was the one before Jimmy Carter...
08 Obama won an unfair primary, but just because he managed to pull it off doesn't retroactively make it fair.
2020 Biden was doing poorly until SC, got his only good performance, and then like a day before super Tuesday everyone except Biden and Bernie dropped, they all started campaigning for Biden. And then the DNC said that was a mandate for Biden and started pushing Bernie to also bow out.
It might not have been an outright fix, but it was more than a finger on the scale and sure as shit wasn't fair.
I have high hopes the next one will show everyone what a legitimately unbiased primary looks like.
Yea Bernie was robbed, the DNC worked hard to sabotage his candidacy every step of the way. If Bernie got a fair shot, we would never have to utter the words "President Trump".
But what about the Obama 08 primary was rigged?
I think candidate Obama was a amazing liar- he lied about ending the wars and punishing the war criminals, he lied about immigration reform, he lied about healthcare reform, he lied about closing the torture prison at Guantanamo, etc etc. It's easy to blame Republican opposition, but Obama gave up on most of these major promises without a fight.
A lying politician is normal though. What makes it rigged?
"unfair" does not mean "rigged"...
Ok then, what made it unfair?
Warren didnt drop out also.
Yeah, but she wasn't running a campaign, Roger Lau was trying to use her to crash out on Bernie to take them both out.
