Sanders isn't the only candidate bitching about the limited debates. The dnc is desperately trying to make sure another Obama doesn't fuck up Hillarys future.
Debates are fucking fixed. They've been fixed ever since the two-headed party took it over from the League of Women Voters. They did that so they can filter out the Sanderses and the Huntsmans and the Perots and the Andersons and the Naders. It's just like having control of a city's radio, TV and newspapers. Monopolize the medium, control who gets to use it, and narrow-band the entire political spectrum to make sure nothing gets in to challenge Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb.
If we weren't living in such a controlled laboratory of fake discourse we wouldn't have people posting "he says right out he's a Socialist!" thinking that's an actual issue.
So is Sanders lying when he calls himself a Socialist?
He's always called himself a socialist, back to when he was the mayor of Burlington.
What's the point?
Are you saying that Bernie isn't a Socialist or that having a genuine Socialist in contention for Dem nomination is no big deal?
