Bennet slams the DNC debate rules at the DNC: Says it favors celebrities and billionaires...

Michael Bennet, first up at a 2020 candidate forum at a DNC meeting here in San Francisco, opens with a self-deprecating joke: "This is the first time in this race I've ever been a frontrunner."

Bennet slams the DNC debate rules at the DNC: Says it favors celebrities and billionaires, forces people to spend money on FB, which he calls the platform the Russians used to hack the 2016 election.

"The DNC process is stifling debate at a time when we need it most."

...he needs to accept the fact that he simply doesn't have enough support to justify staying in the race. And he needs to stop promoting the right wing talking point that it's Democrats (and not Republicans) who have become too radical.
