Why can't democrats debate?

[oldtimer28]

Why would the Democrat party censor its own candidate RFK?

RFK debating Biden would show that RFK is their best candidate by far....and not in his 80s and demented.

[diamenz]

because it's a rigged system. williamson is also being snubbed. you're an old head - you should know how these things work.

[Patrick Chewing]

Besides it being a rigged system, the bigger problem is the masses of ignorant voters that don't see this treachery, or that willfully ignore it, and continue to vote for these politicians, but then complain when the shit hits the fan. A sitting president with a 37% approval rating at the moment should never be given the red carpet to the nomination again.

RFK is a complete joke no wonder right wing lunatics like him :lol

Williamson is good for a politician, though.

Biden might have already lost the Iowa and New Hampshire primaries. Here's why. (https://www.businessinsider.com/biden-iowa-new-hampshire-primary-dnc-rules-2023-4)


President Joe Biden's newly launched 2024 re-election campaign is not off to the smoothest start.

One of Biden's challengers may be poised to secure the first electoral contests of the season, putting the incumbent president at risk of losing early state nominations to lesser-known candidates, NBC News reported.

The new primary calendar ratified by the Democratic National Committee – at Biden's request – downgraded Iowa and New Hampshire from their longstanding positions as the first electoral hoorahs of the primary season. As a result, candidates are prohibited from campaigning — or even adding their names to the ballot — in any state that refuses to adhere to the calendar.

Both Iowa and New Hampshire, who have long enjoyed outsized influence as early-voting states, plan to buck the DNC rules and hold their contests early anyway.

That means that if Biden intends to follow his own rules, he would have to forfeit the two contests, clearing the way for Democratic challengers like Marianne Williamson, a self-help author, or Robert Kennedy Jr., an environmental lawyer best known these days for his anti-vaccine stance. Both have said they would accept the DNC's penalties for campaigning out of turn, NBC News reported.

The DNC has not yet indicated what those penalties might be.

"We still intend to have a presidential primary that will be first in the nation," said New Hampshire's secretary of state, David Scanlan, according to NBC News. "Whether the president campaigns here or not is up to him. It's up to him whether he's going to place his name on the ballot or not."

Scanlan added of Biden: "If he chooses not to place his name on the ballot, I'm sure there will be some New Hampshire Democratic voters who will write his name in."

Thanks - quote from your article:

The first 2024 GOP presidential primary debate is set for this August in Milwaukee, the Republican National Committee announced earlier this month. It will be held in partnership with Fox News, Young America’s Foundation and Rumble.

During his interview on Wednesday, Trump indicated that if he is the GOP nominee, he would be amenable to debating Biden before the general election.

“You have a Democrat. You have a Republican. You have really an obligation to do that,” Trump said.

Meanwhile, democrats hiding (in shame). Should be in shame but perhaps just hiding whilst complaining about logic and intelligence..........

conservatives were right about you, RMWG. i always gave you the benefit of the doubt as a decent poster because you don't do so often and also don't tend to go out of your way to stir the rabble here.

i'll give you another shot at adding some context as to how biden not wanting to participate in debates is a night & day difference vs trump not wanting to. don't let me down bro. keep things interesting. :rockon:

So in other words, Biden still won't debate, right? Cause that article doesn't negate the original topic at hand.

not gonna entertain me, huh. alright. here's the deal, fat.

joe biden, the democrats and the liberal media have all been incessantly crying about how trump is destroying our 'DEMOCRACAAaAaAaY!!!' "DONALD TRUMP'S AGAINST IT AND WE'RE FOR IT"! since 2016.

now check this. 51% of dems DON'T WANT joe for 2024. 82% of dems WANT debates. 59% are concerned about joe biden's mental faculties. so... where's our democracy? :confusedshrug:

not even mentioning the fact that rfk is polling in double digits which alone officially gets him a place on the debate stage. so all we need is old slow joe to take a shot of meth up his ass to get him up on the stage alongside him.

You mean.. you don't like me?

[diamenz]

You mean.. you don't like me?

like i said, i didn't mind you at first, but now i get the impression that you're just another typical liberal idiot that hates trump for reasons that aren't policy-based and won't hold democrats accountable for their hypocrisy and corruption because you're tribal, brainwashed and propagandized.

carry on though bro. politicians need people like you.

[Real Men Wear Green]

I'm definitely starting to think you don't like me.

Imagine being afraid of debating RFK... the guy can barely speak - he sounds like a suffocating frog and the entire mainstream (brought to you by pfizer) is opposed to him.

[Lakers Legend#32]

The real question is,

Why won't "tough guy" Trump debate?

[Patrick Chewing]

They know damn well RFK with his broken voice would run circles around Joe Biden. If they don't debate against him, they can't lose to him. Again, I'm disgusted at how Americans can keep voting for Democrats despite how crooked that party has become.

Yeah we would never vote for someone who tried to overthrow his own government.

because you can't state that the environment dictates who and what I am, then proceed to exercise. :dancin

True. Rfk seems incredibly intelligent but I do not agree with some of his views.

E.g.

His view on V - yes
Climate change - no

He seems the most educated of all candidates though.
