Whether Bennett, Harris, Castro, Booker, me or anyone else, neither $ nor polls (no transparency there!) nor DNC should be allowed to “narrow the field” before IA or NH. That’s the PURPOSE of primaries! The debates are undemocratic & should only exist if all candidates included.

What it amounts to is the modern equivalent of old time backroom deals where guys with cigars decided who the candidates would be: “Don’t let anyone but our guys get in here.” Paternalism is NOT democracy. People who think they “know best” don’t always do.

Why does this matter so much? It matters because neofascists are literally at the door, and those who paved the way for this danger are NOT necessarily those who know how best to deal with it. DNC controlling things caused a catastrophe in 2016 & it’s a slow moving car crash now.
