Warren, Sanders, DiBlasio (who is no longer running) all have been openly anti-billionaire Di Blasio even said if you elect me I will tax the hell out of Billionaires (Which is Anti-Billionaire)

No one said they would tax the hell out of billionaires.

Sanders said simply that he'd hold them accountable to PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE - like everyone else already does.

Currently, billionaires are the ones who are discriminating against working class American, by not paying their fair share of taxes.

That is absolutely illegal, unlawful, unethical, inhumane, and it's against the US Constitution.

Just to clarify, NotPC is correct. Obviously, Clueless poster is a clueless poster.

From Forbes, not exactly a left leaning publication, billionaires pay less then the working class--https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackkelly/2019/10/11/for-the-first-time-in-history-us-billionaires-paid-a-lower-tax-rates-than-the-working-class-what-we-should-do-about-it/#1491b6a1fcec

Green Party does not have primary and caucus. Libertarian Party, sans primary and sans caucus. Party heads used to just select leaders, Democrats & Republicans. The voters voted after the leader had been selected by party bosses. This primary caucus thing is less than 100 years as a process. It is a process. It is not a law.

I've been a Mayor Pete fan for awhile, but as he's ascended, my opinion of him has cooled a bit, not sure why.

I really like Yang and Klobuchar.

same here. I think his inexperience is starting to come out the more he gotten some heat. Klobuchar kind of nailed him when she said if he had won Indiana, that would be something.

I haven't written him off but Klobuchar and Yang have moved up on my list. But even if they could possibly win it, i don't think they can beat trump. Sadly, think only biden can do this.

Democrats lose again!!!!

No getting the joke. Are you posting as a Clueless Poster?

Nothing in the constitution about political parties, parties can chose who they want, how they want.

How many states' electoral codes have you read? Most of them do require parties to allow all affiliated voters to access whatever process they use.

That's why you see the Democrats resorting to sneaky shenanigans like de-affiliating voters in 2016 in New York, and slow-counting ballots in California so the deadline to certify the results hit before they were all counted. They spent tremendous amounts of time and money rigging their primary a thousand different ways - if they could legally have just declared who their candidate was, cheaply and simply, they would have.

The results at a primary or caucus are not binding. Have you heard of Super delegates?

Do states require Green Party and Libertarian Party to have caucus or primary? No.

Have you not noticed that T R U M P has canceled some primaries to avoid embarrassment.

Those so called state statues hold no weight.

Hey, whatever it takes to cover that minimum wage plus all taxes and whatnot

Democrats lose again!!!!

God loves and understands you. There is good in this world.

This is no troll.

Julian Castro Has dropped out of the Presidential Race, Castro who is A Blue Dog Democrat from Texas could still be picked as The VP as he is from Texas and many think Texas could be a Purple/Battleground state in 2020 and if the Democrats Win Texas they Probably/Almost Certainly would get the Presidency.

Many others don't think Texas will turn Blue until 2024 or 2028

As crazy as this looked at the start, it looks like the Democrats may go into to the primaries with a smaller group than what the Republicans had 4 years ago.

In 2016, there were 12 Republican candidates on the initial primary ballots.

Castro dropping out leaves 14:

Michael Bennet (D)

Joe Biden (D)

Michael Bloomberg (D)

Cory Booker (D)

Pete Buttigieg (D)

John Delaney (D)

Tulsi Gabbard (D)

Amy Klobuchar (D)

Deval Patrick (D)

Bernie Sanders (I)[1]

Tom Steyer (D)

Elizabeth Warren (D)

Marianne Williamson (D)

Andrew Yang (D)

Did you know Bennet, Delany and Williamson have not dropped out yet?

Dang. With Beto gone and now Julian too, who’s going to be speaking in Spanish on the campaign trail to put off the 80% of the population who don’t understand a word? Booker maybe, but so far he’s stayed off that path, except for the “No” wisecrack
