Jeezus. The VP is the most logical person to run. 🤷♀️
Wtf is a public ‘virtual snap primary’? The Board of Elections is on the county level. Does BLM think you can pick up the phone and get 3k counties to… what? Make a surveymonkey? smh.
The complaint about an unknown VP is moot, as it’s always an unknown VP until at the convention.
Not if you count the underdog campaign of Cruz/Fiorini. Followed closely by Cruz, visibly uncomfortable, stumping for trump on the phones.
I think the alternative is an open convention, which has its own problems.
The article is BLM demanding a straight up new primary. Which is insanity. They say they want an informal virtual vote of the public. What the hell does that mean? Who gets to be considered a dem? How is that verified? -no possible way republicans could absolutely fuck with it, right?
I think an open convention wouldn’t be the worst thing. Who is going to run against her with 100 days left starting from scratch?
COINTELPRO?
“Let us be clear: This is about the Democratic Party following a process that protects the legitimacy of any future Democratic president following this unprecedented moment,” the statement said.
"Installing Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and an unknown vice president without any public voting process would make the modern Democratic Party a party of hypocrites. It would undermine their credibility on issues related to democracy.
anointing is the same thing the Republicans want
without democracy what do we have?
Walk me through the logistics. Because real Dems did vote for her in a real primary. Just because you didn’t like the ballot at the time doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. How do you make a poll legitimate enough to over turn that outcome with enough time for the winner to campaign? Think about it. Take 30 seconds and visualize how you would do it. Outline it for me.
