3. We need people to be dropping out instead of choosing to run.

“The knowledge of thyself will preserve thee from vanity.” Cervantes

Evidently a number of Democratic hopefuls do not know themselves. I hope after this first debate, the DNC urges candidates who remain with less than 1% to drop out. We do not need the next debate stage to be filled with wannabes who have no chance of winning the nomination. And some of them should be considering a Senate run instead. We need all three branches to accomplish anything more meaningful than passing an annual budget.
