That's the root of the problem. That's what needs to be investigated.
I saw a list of the searches that Bernie's employees did. They looked like they were intended to identify and separate Hillary's data from Bernie's. They looked to me like they were intended to show that Hillary's information was in the database. I could be wrong, but that is what it looked like to me. You can't determine for sure whether you have data you aren't supposed to have without looking for it. And the searches sought it out.
The DNC has favored Hillary very definitely from the beginning of Bernie's campaign.
The debate schedule is a travesty.
The five worst nights of the year for debates are New Year's Eve, Christmas night, Christmas eve, the Sunday before Christmas and the Saturday night before Christmas. Maybe New Year's day is even better than this Saturday before Christmas.
The DNC has done what it could to silence any discontent in the Democratic Party. It will pay for that dearly as will all of us Democrats.
Debbie Wasserman-Schultz should resign and a DNC chair should be appointed who will be fair to all candidates running for office as Democrats.
We Bernie supporters feel shunned and excluded from the Democratic Party at the highest levels.
Just went to a neighborhood party tonight. Lots of Bernie supporters in my neighborhood. Lots of them. I was very surprised. I am totally amazed at how popular Bernie is in my area of California.
The DNC needs to be more open to change. Terribly conservative bunch.
Debbie Wasserman-Schultz should have resigned after the 2015 fiasco of a campaign that she ran in the mid-term election. That was really a mess. She did not motivate and organize or inspire grass-roots Democrats well at all.
