Delaney: New DNC debate criteria 'probably excludes a large part of our country'

The Democratic National Committee is facing backlash from some candidates after it raised the bar to appear on the debate stage this fall. 2020 Democratic candidate and former Congressman John Delaney joins "Red and Blue" to discuss.

Kind of like the news these days ignores more than half of the country.

well well well. and here I was thinking the DNC might actually allow Americans to hear more than just 1 narrative

[dulynoted]

Moderacy is definitely not how Trump got into office and it’s definitely not a belief in moderacy why so many progressives stood up and took over the house and why there has been so many people coming out to vote. People like Senator Bernie Sanders, who created a movement in this country that exists to this day, is not moderate. And the fact he has been the one to bring awareness of the issues, the same issues these johnny-come-lately‘s have their own pathetic spin on, speaks volumes. The vast majority of American people do not want a moderate leader. They want someone who is going fix Washington. Trump lied about the issues he said he’d champion and duped his voters on getting him into Office, along with the fact they didn’t want to vote for the DNC pick who was clearly a status quo moderate in Hillary. Say no to Joe and the status quo and the Johnny come latelys
Sanders/Gabbard 2020

Sir, if you can’t get 130, 000 people to support you and 2% of those polled on your side, how can you win the primary? Also, does moderate mean sell-out or compromiser. We do need some compromise.

I donate to to my candidate every month. Its only 3.00, but I donate. Many of us poor folk do the same. Don’t under estimate the small donors. No, this dude is not my candidate.

A more moderate/centrist candidate...how'd that work out in 2016? What a joke!

[codthunderful]

I thought it was the criteria for the 3rd and 4th debate. It is stupid to move the goal for the 1st debate after you set it.

[PrincessTS]

no problem for bernie he has way more supporters than most of the other canidates so once again bernie will win the debates

[lain]
