      3 presidential runs and it was his first primary win.

      The shit was rigged, but by giving southern states a say at all (especially that early) is part of how it was rigged. If they’d done swing states first, then strongholds, and then states they are guaranteed to lose the math would have been very different.

          Damn, that’s such a fuck you blatant move at preventing another Bernie. Once again, the Dems only get their claws out and seriously play politics when it’s to stop all movement leftward.

            and this, kids, is how we got to the present, in which Biden isn’t on the ballot in New Hampshire and needs to run a write-in campaign.
