      Joe Biden has directed the Democratic National Committee Twitter, Facebook, and the MSM to reduce the danger that progressives might effectively challenge him in the 2024 presidential primaries.

      Fixed

      Actually just kidding, none of those entities wants Biden over any given true believer progressive. For that matter, the only reason Biden's camp wants Biden over a true believer, is for electability.

      Education is extremely important.

        This guy was a Bernie Sanders delegate.

        Leftists like Sanders do much better in Caucuses (which attract activists who have all evening to participate) than Primaries (where busy single mothers etc can actually vote).

        So his argument is disingenuous and exactly wrong. True democratic participation hurts his cause.

          It's funny how "democracy" has become the buzzword of the last 4-8 years. Basically, it boils down to, as Jon points out, "something I don't like is anti-democratic."

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
