New Rules Eliminate Tulsi Gabbard From Next Democratic Presidential Debate
The Epoch Times ^ | 03-07-20 | ZACHARY STIEBER

The Democratic National Committee changed the qualifying criteria for presidential debates again, eliminating Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii). The committee (DNC) said Friday that participants in the next debate must have at least 20 percent of the pledged delegates. Gabbard, 38, has earned only two delegates so far. Under the new rules, the March 15 debate in Phoenix, Arizona, will feature Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), 78, and former Vice President Joe Biden, 77. Gabbard is the only Democratic candidate left in the race besides the men. Gabbard would have qualified for the debate under previous rules. She has not qualified for the past five debates.

Tulsi would have whipped old Joe on the push-up question.

With her military training, Tulsi could have administered CPR to the Bern.

Tulsi is in a party that hates the military and vets...especially combat vets.

TULSI: Thank you for your service.

Why does the politburo not just dispense with the circus show and go ahead and appoint their candidate now?

While Lizze Warren is on warpath on wimmen being ignored, why isn’t she endorsing Tulsi to show it’s not all about her but about women fighting to get to the top? Hypocrisy on show for everyone to see.

DNC hates her though, great enemies to have Tulsi, welcome to the club.

Yep - she’s the best speaker and sharpest mind of those left - the Dems are betting all their marbles on Senile Joe - who has lost all his marbles...ironic.

Make no mistake; She’s a leftist, just like the rest of them. I appreciate her service to this country, but I’d sooner hack my left arm off with butter knife than cast a vote for a leftist.

I don’t understand why she is still hanging around. I can only guess that there is some kind of Financial gain or perhaps she gets some visibility for higher office in the future.

The DNC changed the debate rules to allow a short, fat, old white misogynist male in, and then changed the rules again to keep a hot ethnic minority female out.

Pretty face, but an uber Lefty who endorsed Comrade Bernie in 2016. Not in the majority, though there are plenty of veterans who are Regressives such as Gabbard.

It will just be Crazy Bernie and Sleepy Joe on stage at the March 15th debate. Unlike the previous debates, Biden won’t be able to hide among a number of other candidates. He will be given plenty of opportunities to speak, which means plenty of opportunities to make bizarre and confusing comments. Biden’s mental state continues to deteriorate with each passing day. The DNC and their friends in the media won’t be able to pass off his incoherent ramblings as “gaffes”, “charming” or “folksy” much longer. It’s becoming increasingly evident to everyone that Biden has some serious issues going on that have been ignored up until now.

Any woman that accused ANYONE that didn’t vote for hillary as being a sexist is a hypocrite if they don’t vote for Tulsi. Remind them of that fact. And they can forever STFU.

She’s vying for the VP spot on the ticket.

And they going to start it early? Because they will need to be done by “sundown” time. And with DST kicking in, they will be tired.
