1. Time

gives a fuller picture of the back and forth on the debates. This piece you've posted is one-sided.

2. 3 debates when no one would watch them

The dishonesty is high here

[metroins]

4. 3 debates offered

3 turned down.

[jfern]

11. Bernie offered debates when people would watch them

Not some bullshit weekday morning debate.

[metroins]

12. Sometimes schedules don't work out

Debates were offered. He turned them down.

Honestly, they should let them debate without a moderator.

13. Lets have a debate when people can actually see it

The 3 Hillary offered were total bullshit.

[metroins]

14. Not really

2 at night, one in morning.

It's not like they don't get replayed 200 times.

Doesn't matter when the actual time is.

18. What's wrong with Thursday the 14th?

3. Keep them moving Bernie. Morning debate? Lol, no.

5. A morning debate would be better

People can watch it throughout the day.

7. People can watch a prime time debate through the next day.

8. Which was offered twice and he rejected both

What's he afraid of?

15. It is his way or the highway.

Honestly, I voted for the guy in Ohio...he believe much as I do...but I dislike him more and more.

16. He's not afraid, he's vying for the best time for his campaign.

It's politics. And he is winning this mini-battle. First he got Hillary to agree to an April debate when they negotiated the NH debate.

He wanted her to commit to NY April debate, she refused to agree to NY.

Now they are in NY. Even after this week when she threatened no more debates.

Now they are narrowing to the time and date. This is no chance Hillary would refuse a NY or an April debate at this point. I suspect an agreement was signed with respect to April.

At any rate, she'll come around to a date that Bernie can agree to. She hasn't proposed one yet.

6. Absolutely nothing wrong with the 14th. He wanted a NY debate and he is

getting it. He should bend on the date.

Personally I think the 4th is a better idea because Wisconsin voters can see it but I understand the basketball game is an issue.

And it looks like Sanders agreed to a GMA debate but changed his mind after Clinton a greed.

He is playing games.

And tax day is the 18th.

9. If he won't agree, then that's on him

At this point this is just some childish game to portray Sanders as a victim and Clinton as an evil predator attacking him.

10. Or make a counter offer

Just say no is a Nancy line.

17. According to Hillary Shill Brian Fallon. And we should take his word for it why?

[hellofromreddit]

19. They're negotiating

Both groups will be rejecting until they agree on a time/date.

All of this being out in public is just the usual campaign bickering.
