17. Bernie is not a good debater

He just throws his tired same-old talking points of millionaires and billionaires and oligarchs (correction - no millionaires this time) and income inequality and evil corporations and how we need a revolution and stuff. It had little traction the last time and even less now.

Worse, he will try to smear the other candidates without caring for the party.

Debates are not going to help Bernie. Actually the opposite.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
