DNC Changes Debate Rules After Tulsi Gabbard Reaches Previous Requirement
Breitbart.com ^ | 3/6/2020 | hannah bleau

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Friday announced its updated debate guidelines, which essentially eliminate the chance of Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) participating in the upcoming CNN/Univision debate.

In order to participate in the March 15 debate, a candidate must have earned at least 20 percent of the pledged delegates allotted up to that point. That effectively eliminates the chance of Gabbard, who remains in the race, participating, as she currently stands with two delegates.

Ah yes. The diverse party of inclusion. Unless you're NOT the one they want. So, is it anti-Samoan? Anti-hindu? Or another case of no girls allowed. IF they contestants really cared about those they 'claim' to care so much about, surely one of them would have stepped aside so a POC could be in the final number. Right? Guess not.

Someone needs to ask Nancy Pelosi if she supports this misogynistic action of the Democrat Party.

Interesting.....Democrats treat their own as bad as they treat the opposition if it’s expedient.

How was she eligible before? (Obviously not “total percent” of voters, or total delegates since she still has fewer than 4% in the “official” polls.)
Perhaps “still in the race and less than six/five/four candidates”?

That’s very sexist of the democrat party. Besides, Tulsi may be a crazy lib, but her looks are the only reason for men to tune into the debate.

It is so obvious the DNC is not about to let Tulsi damage Slo Joe in a debate.

DNC’s two new rules:

Rule #1: If we don’t like you, you’re out.

Rule #2: Refer to Rule #1.

What’s really funny is that Warren supporters are screaming about sexism because she lost her chance. Do they even realize they’re hating on their own Democrat party members? THEY are the ones who took out Warren.

She’s better looking than AOC. And there’s a few deranged FReepers who think AOC is hot. Well at least one.

Her politics suck, but she is the only one with a brain and competent speaking skills. Gabbard would totally destroy Biden to the point that he would pee his pants.

Agree totally, and the fact that the posters here are so enamored of her because they “think” she is overwhelms any semblance of actual thought from that part of the body which keeps their ears from slamming together in favor of the tiny brain in their pants

I can only imagine what fantasies each one harbors in their minds as they imagine her choosing them for a position in her “cabinet” or whatever mindless thoughts come forth

If you look at Gabbard’s positions.....she’s every bit as left as Warren, it’s just her Pedigree that enamors some folks on this forum.
