Rep. Tulsi Gabbard uninvited from debates thanks to DNC, Bernie has her covered [View all] pinebox Oct 2015 OP

DWS is petty and thin-skinned for uninviting Rep Gabbard. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #1

Can Bernie toss anyone out of the DNC when he's not a Dem? Sheepshank Oct 2015 #8

I believe the Presidents choice heads the Party. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #11

But Obama was a Dem...that makes sense Sheepshank Oct 2015 #12

if he wins the presidency on a dem ticket restorefreedom Oct 2015 #27

Is that an opinion or a rule? Sheepshank Oct 2015 #41

i think all of this is unwritten restorefreedom Oct 2015 #66

well, we will have to disagree on this point. Sheepshank Oct 2015 #79

Back to Tulsi, turns out she's very ambitious. Back-stabbing Hortensis Oct 2015 #112

i don't think he will be interested in "firing" anyone restorefreedom Oct 2015 #118

He will be president of the United States. Won't be given serious thought? rofl n/t jtuck004 Oct 2015 #138

He's running as a dem. He'll win as a dem. Elmer S. E. Dump Oct 2015 #124

But he's not a Dem Sheepshank Oct 2015 #128

Le sigh. artislife Oct 2015 #130

That sounds a lot like the Teabaggers claiming Obama isn't an American. Spitfire of ATJ Oct 2015 #135

no it's not like that....calling a DU Dem a teabagger is just not a standard I subscribe to nt Sheepshank Oct 2015 #141

Bernie is a fellow traveler too. More so than some DINOs I could name. Spitfire of ATJ Oct 2015 #145

what does that have to do with you call me a teabagger? Sheepshank Oct 2015 #147

I didn't. I said the tactic came from the same mindset.... Spitfire of ATJ Oct 2015 #152

Repetition is a learned tactic Sheepshank Oct 2015 #153

Depends on your definition of a Democrat.... Spitfire of ATJ Oct 2015 #156

Want don't you give it a rest. The Democratic voters will decide who will represent them Bernblu Oct 2015 #136

I'm not sure why you feel I'm the one to give it a rest Sheepshank Oct 2015 #149

A Republican POTUS selects chair of GOP. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #59

It is clear now, but not how it was worded before. Sheepshank Oct 2015 #80

Officially, the DNC elects the chair. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #93

I completely understand what you mean Sheepshank Oct 2015 #100

DNC has nothing to gain by teabaggist type obstruction. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #108

He's running as a dem. Ergo as of now he is a dem. Elmer S. E. Dump Oct 2015 #125

You are repeating yourself Sheepshank Oct 2015 #129

And you keep parroting the "he's not a Democrat" line. HooptieWagon Oct 2015 #158

I'll keep stating the obvious as often as I please. Sheepshank Oct 2015 #159

never mind nt a la izquierda Oct 2015 #19

He is running as a Democrat, so he's a fucking Democrat. longship Oct 2015 #38

no he's not a Democrat. he's said he never wants to be one Sheepshank Oct 2015 #45

Utter tosh! longship Oct 2015 #55

Thank you for your "concern" Z_California Oct 2015 #63

yes...I'm concerned about party building Sheepshank Oct 2015 #82

If Bernie didn't believe in D party values Z_California Oct 2015 #83

as soon as he says that he is a Democrat and walks this back Sheepshank Oct 2015 #85

Maybe you want to have those like Strom Thurmond back as Democrats? cascadiance Oct 2015 #90

what a strange comment? Sheepshank Oct 2015 #98

It seems your ONLY criteria to criticize him is that he's not a Democratic Party member... cascadiance Oct 2015 #101

yup, on this thread I'm trying to keep on topic. n/t Sheepshank Oct 2015 #103

Glad to see you acknowledge your own meaninglessness! cascadiance Oct 2015 #109

and your attempt to constantly derail the topic at hand Sheepshank Oct 2015 #115

Running for the Democratic nomination in the primary makes a politician a Democrat. Alittleliberal Oct 2015 #78

nope...that doesn't automatically make them a Dem Sheepshank Oct 2015 #84

He disses UNDEMOCRATIC principles by those who CLAIM to have them but really serve 1% rule! cascadiance Oct 2015 #89

When or where has Bernie ever said he wants to be a Democrat? Sheepshank Oct 2015 #92

WHAT has he said to diss the party? cascadiance Oct 2015 #104

you could try a little doing some of your own research....it was easy to find.. Sheepshank Oct 2015 #113

Supporting Democratic POLICY in most of our books is more important than a Democratic LABEL!!!! cascadiance Oct 2015 #88

when XXXX is "LIKE" YYYYY Sheepshank Oct 2015 #94

You talk like your coaching a football team, not one of a party of constituents of common VALUES!!!! cascadiance Oct 2015 #97

good. it's good that he likes some Dem values. He just dislikes the party Sheepshank Oct 2015 #102

He also helps the party in many cases too... cascadiance Oct 2015 #106

Like I have said before. WHEN CRABS ROAR Oct 2015 #119

I'm not crazy about the way the party has shifted to the right, are you? Spitfire of ATJ Oct 2015 #157

So, where's the quote that says "he never wants to be one"? cascadiance Oct 2015 #91

You attempt to imply that he is a Dem because you think he is like a Dem Sheepshank Oct 2015 #95

He knows that to run as an independent blondie58 Oct 2015 #117

He's more of a democrat than many Dems tblue Oct 2015 #131

Yes, I've heard that same line here on DU a lot Sheepshank Oct 2015 #133

DWS is a total embarassment. lark Oct 2015 #9
