US. Rep. and Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard released a video statement on Thursday, October 10, saying she is considering boycotting the October 15 DNC debate in response to the DNC and corporate media's attempt to rig the election process.

Democrats looking to make any headway in the 2020 elections might do better to keep their message positive and constructive, rather than rancorous and partisan.

Admit It, Dems: You Don't Want to Win in 2020
Admit It, Dems: You Don't Want to Win in 2020
The knock from Republicans, Never-Trumpers and moderate Dems is that most of the 2020 candidates are too far to the left and out of touch. Last week’s display confirmed it. This was a definitive example of a party controlled by its fringe elements, preferring purity over victory.

Admit It, Dems: You Don't Want to Win in 2020
If Democratic Party leaders aren’t re-watching last week’s debate in Houston, they should. If they have watched it and aren’t freaking out over what they see, it’s fair to ask  whether they actually want Donald Trump to win a second term. That session was a debacle for the party and the field: Nearly three tortuous hours of tails wagging dogs, petty sniping, and a lack of vision all the Lasik surgery in the world couldn’t cure.

And while election season once signified a ramping up of vitriolic rhetoric aimed at opponents and the other political party, the American public is now exposed to a constant stream of hateful diatribes, mostly thanks to President Trump’s tweets. What remains to be seen in this election season is whether the majority of the voting public is weary of the vitriol and ready to gravitate toward more calm, co

In Wake of Primary Cancellations, One Trump Challenger Calls GOP "A Cult"
In Wake of Primary Cancellations, One Trump Challenger Calls GOP "A Cult"
Four state Republican Parties -- Arizona, Kansas, Nevada, and South Carolina -- have decided to cancel their presidential primary or caucus for the 2020 election, denying even their own members a choice in the 2020 race. It is not uncommon for a party to cancel primaries when they have a sitting president running unopposed. Most of the time the incumbent is effectively not challenged. However, Trump isn't running unopposed. Three Republicans have entered the 2020 presidential election: Former
