some of you whine about 10 or 20 candidates being on the stage but why not 5 moderators

why are they not doing 5 debates a week with 2 candidates

why are they not doing debates between the moderates and the progressives hell they can team the up

why didn't the DNC just stream the debates and offer them to all the channels instead of selling a few rights to a few channels

is this about the DNC making money

OR IS IT ABOUT INFORMING OUR CITIZENS?

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