15. 24 million viewers in the recent debate

That's a pretty efficient way to reach 24 million people in one day. So that kills that argument about efficiency.

Then you say something about endless debates revisiting the same material. But that is what the campaigns are all about, traveling all over, making speeches to small crowds revisiting the same material. Talk about inefficient! Yet that is all you offer.

I had hoped you would come clean and just admit that the last thing the DNC wants is to help Bernie in any way. It's all too evident, and it is un-democratic. The party operatives should be ashamed of themselves for supporting such. I wish they'd all do the honest thing and resign. They are hurting the party by opposing what the People want, and that is more debates.

So, again your argument loses. And frankly, is un-democratic.
