Donald Trump Owes Elizabeth Warren A Million Bucks - And Why Democrats Must Take Direct Control Of Its Nominations Process


I so hope this means she is running and that she is running is going to persuade Bernie Sanders to announce, early, that he is not running because the online cult that aggregated around him in 2016 is already attacking Elizabeth Warren in favor of Bernie Sanders  - who, last time I looked, had dropped his temporary Democratic Party membership after he was done using the Democratic Party to promote his divisive, harmful and dangerous presidential campaign. 

If Bernie Sanders doesn't early announce he is not running he is only going to hurt Elizabeth Warren's chances of winning and helping Republicans either reimpose Trump or some other and equal horror.  If he wanted to prevent that he would endorse Elizabeth Warren and tell his cult to can it with trying to tear her down and talk against her.  And he can start with that total, egomaniac jerk he introduced to a national audience, Jeff Weaver.

The Democratic Party needs to take control of its nominations process to protect it from carpetbaggers and marginal figures.  It should conduct a mail-in ballot for the nomination along the same lines that Washington State conducts its elections of Democrats registered as being in the party six months before the date of the nominations process.  Take the bull shit state-elections patch work out of it, entirely.  State elections processes are too vulnerable to corruption such as can be seen wherever Republicans have control of state governments but also to the idiocy of state Democratic officials who are quite capable of coming up with total idiocy all on their own.   If you want an example of that, wherever the 19th century anti-democratic atrocity of caucuses are still used.  It's time for the Democratic Party to take control of its own presidential nominations process.   Such alleged reforms as same day party-declaration leads directly to Green Party (Republican Party) ratfucking such as I witnessed at the 2016 caucus in my town.   For assholes who are not even party members like Sanders to be able to do what he did in 2016 is unacceptable.
