and not personality based debate begin.

Issues over personality, or you are playing the con and media game of distraction and frustration because there is never a winner in a personality war. And nothing gets done.

Me first.

The next Democratic President obviously has to build on the specific and well detailed economic reforms either proposed or implemented by the Democratic Party current President.

Warren and Sanders have excellent ideas on economic reform that President Obama also supports, so all primary candidates must give details of those reforms and explain why they agree or disagree with those reforms.

We can then respectfully VOTE in the primary, and VOTE like your life depended on it in the general in support of the Nominated Candidate.
