They certainly only want people who are going to vote for them to turn up.
I'm not sure what you mean by stole NH delegates.
I wish more people would vote down ballot. Rs almost always vote top to bottom of the ticket, Ds tend to only vote for names they've heard of. That's why Republicans have taken control of so much local government. Democrats need to win the presidential race by a huge margin for enough of it to trickle down to local stuff.
Yes, the current DNC is there to work for the rich, just like the RNC. If we took over the party though, we could make it do whatever we wanted.
...
When the party took away NHs say in the Dem primary for something only their Republican state government can control.
I mean. Technically NH Dems could violated state law to keep the DNC happy like they asked, are you saying that's what they should have done?
Because the most common sense explanation is they were made NH kept rejecting moderates like Clinton and Biden.
Which is what I'm saying to do, and if you haven't noticed, the more we vote "blue no matter who" the more conservative candidates we get.
Because the DNC thinks anything left of republicans have to vote for them. From that misguided assumption. The party keeps moving right
It's not working, it's never worked, and to keep trying it would be fucking insanity.
Yet here we are.
If we are really willing to sacrifice anything to stop trump, why won't Joe Biden and the DNC sacrifice anything they want?
Why do millions and millions of voters have to vote for someone they don't want? Why can't we run someone that agrees with the party platform and will work towards?
The party isn't the important part, voters are. No matter how much either party tells you differently.
A general election is still about votes
