The independent mayor of Warren, Michigan, said he was threatened with expulsion from Sunday night’s Democratic debate in Flint if he did not quiet down his support for Sen. Bernard Sanders.
“There is a great contrast between the Democratic Debate and the Republican,” he continued. “In the Republican Debate anything goes and the audience is free to speak, shout, boo and say whatever they want to. It’s almost pure democracy mixed in with a little anarchy. However the Democratic Debate is totally controlled by Hillary’s good friend DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz. No commentary is allowed by the audience. Particularly if you are cheering Bernie Sanders. Persons who do not adhere to Hillary’s rules are threatened with expulsion.

That’s why I refuse to call them the Democratic Party.
Because there is absolutely nothing democratic about them.
The mayonnaise is strong in that one....
Gross.
Bring on the night of the long knives
Bump for later.
Pure democracy is bloody and tends to stink.
Per that standard, there is nothing republican about the Republican Party either.
Scratch a liberal / progressive and under the thin veneer of democracy is a fascist...
liberal fascism.
".....but did you really learn anything Speedball?"
You have to wonder if all this DNC/Hillary stuff isn’t going to anger the Bernie supporters into staying home out of spite.
If The Beast wins, adios to the 1st Amendment and FR.
Actually, I predict that once Hillary gets the nomination, there will be a number of Bernie supporters that will cross and vote Trump (if he is the nominee).
Yes, some are for his socialist message, but I know others who are just fed up and are anti-establishment anti-Bush-Clinton and are protesting the whole damn governmental process.
Trump will appeal to that crowd. It won’t be massive numbers, but it will be some. May be enough to spoil or put into play some of the blue states that were thought un-winnable.
I think both parties have tigers by the tail that they do not know what to do with.
