Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

A robust primary to find the best possible candidate?
No no! Let's shove a preselected candidate down everyone's throat and hope they hold their noses. That'll be good enough! Best out of 3!
Hey, how many other presidential candidates have made it to a general election while never earning a single primary delegate in their entire career?!
She's a once in a generation candidate!

Best I can do is sheepdogging and pre-blaming you for the failures of the corporate establishement

Why do people always fruitbat words when traditional ones are sufficient.
English is a living language
Why creativity?
The primary system in the USA is biased to who the first few states prefer. But if the Dems had had an actual primary last time maybe they would have found a different replacement for Biden.
Yep by the time my state gets to vote in the primary, over half of the candidates have dropped out and the obvious winner is preparing for their full campaign. Makes it obvious why so few vote in the primaries here
Wouldn’t that increase the chances of a non-Zionist Jewish candidate to win? That’s is by far a much worse scenario to the DNC than losing the election.
I thought her family is Zionist. She spent her whole term as VP providing diplomatic protection for Israel, and in part served a meaningful role in one of the worst man made famines in human history and the destruction of Gaza. Maybe she's not explicitly genocidal, but her actions are what brought the world to this exact global mess. Whether one blames Trump or not, there's a sequence of actions taken to get here - I'm just saying Harris and the surrounding network is a part of that.
I suppose the world may be in the process of coming to terms that the Americans can no longer solve the issue internally. At some point, I wouldn't be surprised as more countries just negotiate directly with Iran, and without the US.
yes, her husband is an uber zionist. He said he would devote his term as first gentleman "fighting antisemitism" in the US.
If only....
