.@JoeBiden @BernieSanders I’m sure you would agree that our Democratic nominee should be a person who will stand up for what is right. So I ask that you have the courage to do that now in the face of the DNC’s effort to keep me from participating in the debates. #LetTulsiDebate
The DNC has changed the format for the next debate, where Joe Biden would have had to stand at a lectern for two hours and answer questions from professional moderators, to one where both men will be seated and answer questions from the audience.
New standards eliminate Tulsi Gabbard from next Democratic debate
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Friday announced new qualifying standards for the upcoming Arizona debate that will leave only the top two contenders on stage.
My opponents would like you to think the ideas that we’re talking about are radical. They’re not. They’re what the American people want. #DemDebate
Want a guaranteed seat at the Democratic debate in Charleston? It’ll cost a lot of cash.
(06.02.2020)
Condon also added that the ticket system is not unique to the Charleston debate.
“It’s completely usual,” Condon said. „This is exactly what’s happening in New Hampshire for their debate, Nevada’s debate and Iowa’s debate and so on.
I live in Charleston. The easiest way to get in the debate was to donate a minimum of $1750.

Democrats try to stop Sanders‘ momentum in fiery debate
But almost no candidate was unscathed in the fiery Democratic debate, which took place just four days before the pivotal South Carolina primary and a week ahead of Super Tuesday.
Debatte der US-Demokraten: Alle gegen Bernie Sanders
Eine Woche vor dem Superwahltag und nur wenige Tage vor den Abstimmungen in South Carolina haben sich die US-Demokraten auf den Favoriten Sanders eingeschossen. Dieser stand bei einer TV-Debatte immens in der Kritik.

Bloomberg savaged in first appearance on Democratic debate stage
One of the most significant donors in the U.S. to Democratic causes and candidates came under relentless attack Wednesday night during his first appearance on a debate stage as a candidate for the party’s presidential nomination.

Tlaib boos Clinton at Sanders event, says ‚haters will shut up on Monday when we win‘ Iowa
Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D) booed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during a live campaign event for presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in Iowa on Friday.
The moment happened toward the end of a panel discussion with Tlaib and Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn) and Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) at Sanders’s first „Caucus Concert,“ which featured a performance by Bon Iver in Clive, Iowa, ahead of Monday’s caucus.

Poll finds Sanders faring best against Trump in Texas
So, while the other three Democrats tested — Biden, Warren and Buttigieg — split that vote about 60-40 in their favor, Sanders beats Trump 70 to 30 among voters 18 to 29 years old.”
Independent voters are also a strength for Sanders in Texas, Blank said. He was the only one of the four candidates to beat Trump among independents.
“[W]hile all three Democrats, aside from Sanders, lost independents to Trump in this poll, basically 60 to 30 or so with the rest of them unsure, Sanders is actually ahead of Trump with independents, 44 to 41,” he added.
Bernie Sanders Has Been Getting It Right for 40 Years. Now, Says His Movement: ‚We Are Going to Win‘
Ahead of Monday’s official commemoration of Martin Luther King Jr., actor and activist John Cusack, journalist and public intellectual Naomi Klein, and writer and artist Molly Crabapple were among those who joined Sen. Bernie Sanders on the campaign trail in New Hampshire over the weekend to meet with voters and explain to rally-goers why their preferred candidate—coupled with the grassroots movement he now leads—represents something extremely rare in U.S. politics.

At the Iowa Debate, Bernie Sanders’s Most Vociferous Opponent Was CNN
This time, though, it was CNN moderators who brought out the bat and swung it hard at Sen. Bernie Sanders. The Vermont independent had topped a major Iowa poll last week, compounding fears that have only recently emerged among the party establishment that he may be on course for the nomination.
In contrast to Sanders’s treatment, former Vice President Joe Biden, the national frontrunner, was barely touched — either by moderators or his rivals.
CNN Completely Botched The Democratic Presidential Debate
Who will stand up for the “insurance town” in the 2020 election? Why should the government do things? Will Bernie Sanders bankrupt America? Who onstage will let Iran have a nuclear weapon ― you know, just because?
If these sound like terrible questions to you, you’re right. They were awful. And they were the focus of CNN’s tedious, interminable, frivolous debate on Tuesday night ― a fiasco of irrelevance held three weeks before the Iowa caucuses.
#CNNIsTrash Trends As Pushback Grows Against Oligarchic Election Meddling
The joint smear job against Sanders had many arms, including wildly biased questions like Wolf Blitzer deliberately associating Bernie with “Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei” by pointing out that they both want US troops out of the Middle East and demanding to know how he was going to avoid “bankrupting the country” with a healthcare plan used in nations all over the world.
But by far the most glaringly egregious assault on the Vermont Senator’s image was when CNN moderator Abby Phillip took a completely evidence-free sexism smear which defies all logic and presented it to the debate audience as an established and undeniable fact.
‚CNN Is Truly a Terrible Influence on This Country‘: Democratic Debate Moderators Pilloried for Centrist Talking Points and Anti-Sanders Bias
Critics of the corporate media as well as supporters and staffers of Sen. Bernie Sanders‘ campaign blasted the moderators of the CNN/Des Moines Register Democratic presidential debate Tuesday night for employing centrist talking points and demonstrating a bias against Sanders in how they framed questions.
Thanks for the shoutout, @BernieSanders. I’ve spent my entire career fighting to repeal the Authorization for the Use of Military Force and I’m not about to stop now. It’s more important than ever that Congress reassert our Constitutional authority to declare war and peace.

The Iraq War haunts the 2020 vote
Incredibly, Americans will vote this year in the fifth straight presidential election haunted by the Iraq war — proof of the trauma seared on the nation’s psyche.
At CNN’s Democratic debate last night in Iowa, candidates exhumed the decision to topple Saddam Hussein, prompted by fears Donald Trump could plunge the US into another Middle East war — with Iran.
Democrats clash at debate over keeping US troops in Mideast
The United States has about 5,000 troops in Iraq leading the fight against ISIS. There are also about 800 U.S. troops fighting ISIS in Syria. Meanwhile, about 14,000 U.S. troops are in Afghanistan helping Afghan forces fight the Taliban and conducting counterterrorism operations against groups such as ISIS.
Outside of combat zones, the United States has also deployed about 14,000 more troops throughout the Middle East since the summer in an effort to deter Iran.
Democratic Candidates Face Off on Foreign Policy in Iowa Debate
Tensions between the U.S. and Iran—high since Mr. Trump ordered the killing earlier this month of Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani—prompted a deeper discussion of foreign affairs than in the previous six debates.
Warren appears to snub Sanders‘ handshake after Iowa debate
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) appears to refuse to shake Sen. Bernie Sanders‘ (I-VT) hand following the CNN/Des Moines Register Iowa Democratic debate.
Sanders Campaign Co-Chair After Debate: 30 Years Ago, Warren Was A Republican
Warren was indeed a registered Republican until the mid-1990s. She said her research as a legal scholar into the root causes of household bankruptcy reshaped her worldview. As a Democrat, she defeated Republican Sen. Scott Brown in 2012 in her first run for office.
“The only person on this stage who has beaten an incumbent Republican anytime in the past 30 years is me,” Warren added. That bothered Sanders: “1990. That’s how I won. Beat a Republican congressman.” Warren: “Thirty years ago. Wasn’t it 30 years ago?”
Live Updates: Democratic debate in Iowa
Democrats on the debate stage tonight agree: it’s time for the US Congress to exercise its power anew to either authorize or deny the use of military force around the world.
The conversation is rooted in a 2001 vote, taken only a few days after the 9/11 attacks, that has been used now for nearly two decades by both Republican and Democratic administrations as the legal backing to continue the amorphous “War on Terror.”
Despite its historical consequences, the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force, or AUMF, runs only 60 words:
“That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.”
It was one vague paragraph, but according to a May 2016 report from the Congressional Research Service, there had been „37 relevant occurrences of an official record, disclosed publicly, of presidential reference to the 2001 AUMF in connection with initiating or continuing military or related action.“

The Note: Sanders vs. Warren fight tests both candidates at only Iowa debate
The non-aggression pact between Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren has been a prominent feature of the previous six Democratic debates. That will mean nothing if they choose this moment to say publicly what their campaigns are saying about each other privately — marking perhaps the biggest strategic question facing the major Democratic candidates in the final 20 days before the caucuses.
Sanders and Warren Meet and Agree: They Both Are Probably Running
(13.08.2018)
Only the two senators were present and they stated what has become abundantly clear: that they are both seriously considering seeking the Democratic nomination in 2020. But neither Ms. Warren nor Mr. Sanders sought support from the other or tried to dissuade the other from running, said the officials familiar with the meeting.
New: In a new statement, Elizabeth Warren says about her meeting with Bernie Sanders in 2018: “I thought a woman could win; he disagreed.”
What we just broke on air @CNN: Bernie Sanders told Elizabeth Warren in a private meeting in December 2018 that he did not believe a woman could win, according to four sources.

Sanders Says Netanyahu Is ‚Racist‘, Biden Calls for Two-state Solution in Democratic Debate
Sanders added, however, that „U.S. foreign policy is not just being pro-Israeli; we must be pro-Palestinian as well.“ Sanders criticized Netanyahu, saying that „we must understand that right now in Israel we have the leadership of Netanyahu who has recently been indicted for corruption, and who in my view is a racist.“
The Vermont Senator said U.S. foreign policy should work toward solving the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and should focus on „bringing people together and negotiating agreements, not running endless wars.“
Battle for Iowa takes center stage at Democratic debate
Biden and Sanders both posted strong debate performances that will leave supporters watching the polls to see if they can separate themselves from the pack ahead of the caucuses. They also engaged in a heated clash over health care, which has been the most divisive issue in the Democratic primary contest by far.
Biden, Sanders lead Democratic field in early primary states
Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) lead the Democratic field in the early primary states, according to this week’s Morning Consult poll.
The poll released Monday found Biden earned 29 percent support and Sanders stood at 24 percent support in the states with early primaries or caucuses: Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.
2020 candidates threaten to boycott next week’s Democratic debate in L.A. over labor dispute
All seven of the Democratic presidential candidates who have qualified for next week’s scheduled debate in Los Angeles threatened Friday to skip the event to express support for union workers involved in a contract dispute at Loyola Marymount University.

2020 elections: Democratic establishment reaches boiling point with Tulsi Gabbard
(21.11.2019)
“She has views on foreign policy that are so outside the mainstream as to be a real liability to the Democratic Party,” said another Democratic senator, who requested anonymity to candidly discuss the party’s issue with Gabbard. “It is corrosive to have folks on that stage who represent views that are clearly not right.”
Who has qualified for the December Democratic debate
Under the new rules, candidates need to register at least 4 percent in four polls approved by the party between Oct. 16 and Dec. 12., or at least 6 percent in two early state polls (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina or Nevada).
Candidates must also earn donations from at least 200,000 unique donors overall, and a minimum of 800 unique donors in at least 20 states.
Bernie Sanders Wins the Foreign Policy Debate

Ihr Mitbewerber Bernie Sanders warnte die Demokraten dagegen, sich ausschließlich mit Trump aufzuhalten.
„Aber wir können uns nicht einfach nur mit Donald Trump beschäftigen. Denn dann würden wir die Wahl verlieren.

Das soll heißen: Wir kümmern uns um Trumps Korruption, aber wir müssen uns gleichzeitig für die arbeitende Bevölkerung in diesem Land einsetzen.“
Five things to watch in tonight’s Dem debate
The field’s four leading candidates — former Vice President Joe Biden, South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) — are all jockeying to deliver a strong performance at the debate, hoping to give their campaigns a burst of momentum heading into 2020 and the Iowa caucuses.
They’ll share the stage with six other candidates — Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), former tech executive Andrew Yang, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) and billionaire philanthropist Tom Steyer — all of whom are hoping for breakout moments of their own.

Bernie Sanders in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.
Biden’s Support of Iraq War Shows How He Would Run the White House
Biden’s support for the invasion seems to demonstrate a belief that the United States need not abide by its international legal obligations, including those prohibiting wars of aggression. As a result, his support for the invasion of Iraq is not simply a “mistake.” It is very relevant and says a lot about what kind of president he would be.
US-Präsidentschaftskandidatin Tulsi Gabbard: Terroristen von al-Qaida waren unsere Bodentruppen in Syrien um die Assad-Regierung zu stürzen.
(17.10.2019)
“ Als Präsident werde ich diese Regimewechselkriege beenden, indem ich zwei Dinge tue: die Beendigung der drakonischen Sanktionen, die wirklich eine moderne Form der Belagerung sind, wie wir sie in Saudi-Arabien gegen den Jemen sehen, und die Zehntausende Flüchtlinge in Syrien verursacht haben. Syrische Zivilisten müssen sterben und verhungern, und ich würde sicherstellen, dass wir aufhören, Terroristen wie al-Qaida in Syrien zu unterstützen, die die die Bidentruppen in diesem andauernden Regimewechselkrieg waren.“
Rivals in Democratic debate make clear they see Warren as the front-runner
That was a central message of the presidential Democratic debate Tuesday, when the Massachusetts senator’s rivals peppered her with hostile questions and blunt challenges to her policies on healthcare, taxes and more.
The debate was the first to be held since Warren moved into the lead of many national and early-state polls, challenging Joe Biden’s status as front-runner, and she drew fire that she had largely escaped in earlier rounds.

“As president I will end these regime change wars by doing two things: ending the draconian sanctions that are really a modern-day siege the likes of which we are seeing Saudi Arabia wage against Yemen that have caused tens of thousands of Syrian civilians to die and to starve, and I would make sure that we stop supporting terrorists like al Qaeda in Syria,” she said.
Tulsi Gabbard: „Donald Trump has the blood of the Kurds on his hands, but so do many of the politicians in our country from both parties who have supported this ongoing regime change war in Syria.“

What, Exactly, is Tulsi Gabbard Up To – A Response
A response to the NYTimes‘ recent smear piece on a Democratic Presidential Candidate, published three days before they are supposed to moderate the presidential debate.
The article also pushes people to believe that supporters of this congresswoman/service members are „unusual,“ or Russian bots. I personally assume this stems from the fact that a lot of people working in corporate media have been raised in somewhat of an elite bubble of neoliberals and ivy-league graduates. There’s nothing wrong with that upbringing, but it definite forces a perspective that doesn’t reflect the values and beliefs of everyday Americans.
How to watch the Democratic presidential debate in Ohio

I will be attending the debate.
This NYT article is so perfect: it’s the exact formula used by DNC-friendly media to smear anyone who it views as adversary: scream RUSSIA & NAZI over & over – no matter what the person’s views are – and your work is done. Look at Tulsi’s views which make her a FSB agent & Nazi:
As if to prove my point, NYT just published a “greatest hits” smear piece. All your favorite hits in one article! These are the folks who will be acting as the “neutral” questioners/moderators of Tuesday’s debate lol
What, Exactly, Is Tulsi Gabbard Up To?
She is now injecting a bit of chaos into her own party’s primary race, threatening to boycott that debate to protest what she sees as a “rigging” of the 2020 election. That’s left some Democrats wondering what, exactly, she is up to in the race, while others worry about supportive signs from online bot activity and the Russian news media.
Perhaps strangest of all is the unusual array of Americans who cannot seem to get enough of her.
The DNC and corporate media are trying to hijack the entire election process
The 2016 Democratic Primary election was rigged by the DNC and their partners in the corporate media against Bernie Sanders.
In this 2020 election, the DNC and corporate media are rigging the election again, but this time against the American people in the early voting states of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada.
They are attempting to replace the roles of voters in the early states, using polling and other arbitrary methods which are not transparent or democratic, and holding so-called debates which are not debates at all but rather commercialized reality television meant to entertain, not inform or enlighten.
Who will break out at the next debate? The 2020 race heats up at the CNN/NYTimes Democratic Presidential Debate. Starts Tuesday 8 p.m. ET LIVE on CNN. #DemDebate
2020 elections: Tulsi Gabbard’s return sets stage for debate fireworks
“She’s laid down some of the toughest attacks of all of the debates, first against [Rep. Tim] Ryan, later against Harris,” said Democratic strategist Mark Longabaugh, an adviser for Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign, which Gabbard supported. “If I’m on the stage with her in this upcoming debate, I’d certainly want to be prepared to rebut or to deal with Tulsi Gabbard coming at me.”
2020 Candidates: Tulsi Gabbard
3. Speaking of the debates, why wasn’t she in the September debate?
Short answer: She didn’t qualify.
Slightly longer answer: She needed 2 percent support in four of the polls that the Democratic National Committee counted toward debate qualification.
But Ms. Gabbard qualified for the October debate, widening the lineup to 12 candidates.

TV-Debatte der US-Demokraten: Biden gegen Warren und Sanders
Biden war zwar einzelnen Angriffen der Konkurrenz ausgesetzt, geriet aber weit weniger unter Druck als noch in der zweiten Debattenrunde Ende Juli in Detroit.
Anders als in den vorherigen beiden Runden gab es diesmal nur einen Abend, an dem alle zehn Demokraten, die sich für die Debatte qualifiziert hatten, gemeinsam auf der Bühne standen.
This is why it was such a loss to not have @TulsiGabbard on the stage.
The lack of foreign policy emphasis in these debates reflects a misunderstanding of what the president actually does. Presidents have unilateral power to do basically whatever they want in the foreign policy domain. Congress conceded that power long ago. Yet, it’s an afterthought

India’s actions in Kashmir are unacceptable: US presidential candidate
Senator Bernie Sanders, a US presidential candidate and the longest serving independent in US congressional history, has called out India’s actions in Kashmir.
Speaking at the Islamic Society of North America conference on Sunday, the senator said he is “also deeply concerned about the situation in Kashmir”. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Imran Khan also addressed the conference via video link. The premier discussed Islamophobia and Kashmir.
.@TulsiGabbard deserves to be on that debate stage. We need her voice.
No transparency = no trust. With your help, we will carry our message forward until we finally have a government that stands for the people, for our planet, and for peace. Stand with me –>
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard: „There’s no explanation or transparency around why certain polls are qualifying while other very credible, recognized polls are somehow not qualifying… Frankly the DNC has not provided any transparency to voters about how they’re making these decisions.“
NH Pollster: ‘Our Polling Schedule is Determined by CNN’
In an exclusive comment to CitizenSource, the University of New Hampshire Survey Center — one of the only DNC-approved pollsters in New Hampshire (due to the fact that they are “partners” with CNN) — explained why they wouldn’t be conducting a poll this month in the battleground state before the crucial September debate. Director Andrew E. Smith responded:
“The UNH Survey Center is funded by grants and contracts. We have contracted with CNN during this primary cycle as we have since 2000. Our polling schedule is determined by CNN and their polling budget.”
Mr. Smith, just a few days before, told a Tulsi Gabbard supporter that they would be happy to conduct a poll “if someone was willing to pay the $50,000 cost,” a cost that CNN usually covers. (Of course, even if a third party provided the funding, the poll wouldn’t count — even if it had the same methodology — simply because it wasn’t funded by CNN or another DNC-approved media organization).
Tulsi Gabbard says she won’t run as an independent if she doesn’t secure the Democratic nomination: “I’ve ruled that out. I’m going to continue to focus on moving our campaign forward, continuing this grassroots campaign, continuing to deliver our message to the American people”
The DNC Would Rather Lose Than Nominate Tulsi Gabbard
Having served in the U.S. Army National Guard in a medical unit during the darkest days of pre-surge Iraq, Gabbard was forced to question all of her pre-war assumptions. From that point, she entered politics and quickly rose to prominence as one of the few voices of restraint and reason among Democrats now infected by the warmongering ruling class.
Since then, the four-term congresswoman has been lampooned by the leaders of her own party for her troubles.
Reminder: if the DNC simply accepted polls conducted by the two largest newspapers in two critical early primary states (NH and SC) — Tulsi would have qualified for the next debate. Their „rules“ make no sense and that’s why people are rightly cynical about this absurd exclusion
We all know that @TulsiGabbard has been excluded from the third @DNC primary debate because she so thoroughly embarrassed neoliberal favorite Kamala-the-corrupt-prosecutor-Harris. This is a small preview of 2020: another shamelessly rigged primary & loss to Trump.
DNC announces criteria for fall debates – and ups the ante
(29.05.2019)
Candidates will need to score at least 2 percent in at least four national or statewide polls in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. The polls must be sponsored by a DNC-approved news organization: The Associated Press, ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Des Moines Register, Fox News, Monmouth University, NBC News, New York Times, NPR, Quinnipiac University, University of New Hampshire, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Washington Post, or Winthrop University.

Tulsi Gabbard’s Campaign Calls On the DNC to Ensure Transparency in Debate Requirements
The DNC set a threshold that candidates must meet 2% in four DNC-certified polls in order to qualify for the third and fourth Democratic primary debates. However, the DNC has not released their criteria for selecting the sixteen polling organizations they deem “certified.”
Rep. Gabbard has exceeded 2% support in 26 national and early state polls, but only two of them are on the DNC’s “certified” list.
Not sure why the Boston Globe or Economist wouldn’t qualify as reputable polls.
Gabbard hits DNC over poll criteria for debates
The campaign noted that Gabbard has exceeded 2 percent support in 26 national and early state polls but said only two of those are on DNC’s “certified” list, even as „many of the uncertified polls, including those conducted by highly reputable organizations such as The Economist and the Boston Globe, are ranked by Real Clear Politics and FiveThirtyEight as more accurate than some DNC ‚certified‘ polls.“
Gabbard Victimized by DNC’s Dubious Debate Criteria
Take, for instance, her poll standing in New Hampshire, which currently places Gabbard at 3.3% support, according to the RealClearPolitics average as of Aug. 20. One might suspect that such a figure would merit inclusion in the upcoming debates — especially considering she’s ahead of several candidates who have already been granted entry, including Cory Booker, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O’Rourke, and Andrew Yang. But the Democratic National Committee has decreed that the polls constituting this average are not sufficiently “qualifying.”
Tulsi Gabbard Is The Most Anti-War 2020 Candidate
Service — in particular, her own military experience — shapes much of her worldview. After voluntarily deploying to Iraq, she felt betrayed by the Bush administration’s false claims of weapons of mass destruction. „I went and deployed to Iraq and enlisted in the military believing the lie that was told to so many of us, to the whole country.” Gabbard’s military focus is attracting a unique cross-section of voters as she campaigns. At the Sweet Corn Parade in Adel, a man approached her to say that he was a Republican but voting for her. „I love your military background…we’ve got to stop these wars,” he said as cars lined up for the annual event.

Candidates scramble to qualify for third debate as deadline nears
So far, nine candidates have made the September debate: former Vice President Joe Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas) and entrepreneur Andrew Yang.

Tulsi Gabbard breaks through in fiery debate performance
Gabbard ended the night as Google’s most searched candidate in a presidential primary debate that was otherwise dominated by former Vice President Joe Biden’s defense of his record against attacks from other candidates.
US-Demokraten: Biden in Bedrängnis
Beim zweiten Teil der TV-Debatte der US-Demokraten haben sich die Präsidentschaftsbewerber auf den bislang führenden Kandidaten eingeschossen: Ex-Vizepräsident Biden. Der hatte große Mühe, den Attacken etwas entgegenzusetzen.
Winners and losers from the second night of the CNN debate
*Tulsi Gabbard: The Hawaii congresswoman entered this debate as one of the least-known candidates in the field. That should change — at least somewhat — after a strong performance.
Tulsa Gabbard Blasts Kamala Harris Over Her Prosecutor Record
The congresswoman from Hawaii received high praise for her performance at the Democratic debate on Wednesday, with some people even taking to social media to accuse tech giants like Twitter of purposely trying to block her popularity.
Tulsi Gabbard Calls Kamala Harris a Drug Warrior and Dirty Prosecutor. She’s Right.
Harris says she’s proud of her record, „but I am deeply concerned about this record,“ said Gabbard. „There are too many examples to cite, but…she blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her to do so. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California. And she fought to keep cash bail system in place that impacts poor people in the worst kind of way.“
Gabbard is right.
Tulsi Gabbard’s rebuttal to Kamala Harris’ invoking of Kathleen Sebelius was just beautiful. An excellent, well-prepared and well-informed attack that was succinct and devastating. *chef’s kiss* #DemDebate
Tulsi Gabbard called out the war machine. 4B spent each month in Afghanistan. Bring the troops home and reinvest at home. The response was: Tapper cut her off and Cory changed the subject. #DemDebate
Tulsi Gabbard: „…People in Flint, Michigan are still being left behind, still being poisoned by the water in their system, because every single month we are spending $4 billion on a continuing war in Afghanistan.“ #DemDebate
‘A different type of vibe’: What does Tulsi Gabbard’s 2020 run say about America?
She broke with most Democratic leaders again by backing Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for president in 2016. When Sanders lost the primary to Hillary Clinton, Gabbard abruptly resigned as vice chair of the Democratic National Committee to fully support him.
Fans say that rejection of her party captured her political integrity. “She was essentially the promised one,” said House, the YouTube host. “She had a chance to capitulate to the will of the establishment for her personal gain … and she did the total opposite.”
I love our country. It’s why I decided to enlist after 9/11, why I serve in Congress, and why I’m offering to serve as your commander in chief — to protect you, our Constitution, our freedom. Tulsi.to/CatchTheWave #TULSI2020 #TulsiGabbard #ServiceBeforeSelf
Moderates Faltered at Tuesday’s Debate. Will Joe Biden Do Better Tonight?
If a moderate candidate is going to rise from the pack of 2020 Democratic presidential hopefuls, no one in the forum appeared to gain enough political propulsion to catch up with Mr. Sanders and Ms. Warren. The two populist liberals have defined the Democratic Party’s policy debate up to this point, a dynamic that only intensified on Tuesday.
And so on Wednesday, many moderate Democrats were turning their eyes once more to Joseph R. Biden Jr.
