That’s what people said about Hillary in 2008 and I don’t remember her winning the Primary.
The primaries aren’t rigged. If you convince enough people to vote for you, you win. Others have that very same right ti convince them not to vote for you.
You can say it’s not fair, but you cannot say it’s rigged. It’s false.
Why does it matter? Candidates can’t be coddled in the primaries. The general is going to be dirty, you gotta play the game.
No they don’t rig elections. People come out to vote and the winner wins. The party has no obligation to support or promote every candidate. If you get people to vote for you more than your opponent, you will win. AOC did it.
Here’s an unpopular opinion for you specifically; Doing any of that will be a waste of time and not fix any of the problems you lay out. You’d have much better results by doing the work at the local level influencing the democratic party. You think fighting the corporate elite is the problem, but it’s not. Third Parties have no organizational structure, no real test ideas, and often are just made up of failed Republicans or far-left individuals that have no idea or interest in governing. They are little more than organizations designed to sell books about how perfect their ideas that have never been realistically challenged are.
Yes, but it’s not just 1 instance you have to worry about. For this to go well, dozens even hundreds of instances have to stay around. If we start losing large chunks of our history or some parts go down here and there it’s not going to survive. This is my third account due to how many issues I was having posting weeks back with the different major instances being overloaded. Even then, most of the posts I’m interacting with are hosted there and from time to time there are errors.
Also Images are a huge burden.
She ran against Obama in 2008, and despite being the media and party favorite, lost to Obama who received more votes.
