My take thus far: Biden really doesn't seem like he has it together. Warren's starting to sound like a broken record. Bernie - well, I'm just tired of him at this point. Harris is fairly cool, Klobuchar's a little non-descript, and Buttigieg is a superstar.

Elderly Candidate Thinks Debate Already Over, Claims Victory
'I'm leaving the fifth Democratic debate now. I hope I made you proud out there'
Graham Piro - NOVEMBER 20, 2019 5:10 PM

Former vice president Joe Biden's campaign sent out a post-Democratic debate fundraising email about six hours before the debate was set to start.

"I'm leaving the fifth Democratic debate now. I hope I made you proud out there and I hope I made it clear to the world why our campaign is so important," the email reads. "We need leadership. We need to be ready on day one to get the country back on track and clean up Donald Trump's mess."

Biden's campaign sent the email to thousands of subscribers even before he set foot on the stage in Georgia for the Wednesday evening debate. The fundraising plea emphasized Biden's "resolve to get things done."

"But we need more than plans. We need the grit and the resolve to get things done. We need to reach across the aisle and demand that our leaders do what's right," the email says.

The debate was set to begin at 9 p.m. Wednesday. Biden faced off against the South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg (D.), who is surging in the latest Iowa and New Hampshire polling. He was also expected to clash with Sens. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), two frontrunners who have attacked Biden from the left. The former vice president enjoys a comfortable lead in the South Carolina primary and has also overtaken Sanders in Nevada.

Biden's campaign sent out a second email an hour later at 4:20 p.m. apologizing for the premature email.

"We were just so excited for it that we accidentally hit send too soon," the second email said. "That's our bad."

Biden's elderliness and command of the English language have come under scrutiny in recent months. "Are you forgetting what you said two minutes ago?" Democratic rival Julián Castro asked Biden in the September debate.

The debate aired on MSNBC.

Booker, Castro say DNC debate rules excluding minorities after Harris exit
By Bradford Betz | Fox News

Democratic presidential candidates Cory Booker and Julián Castro criticized the Democratic National Committee (DNC) Thursday for a process they believe favors white candidates over minority candidates.

Their criticism follows California Sen. Kamala Harris’ withdrawal from the 2020 presidential race Tuesday, leaving only white candidates who will qualify for the next Democratic debate.

Both Booker and Castro increased their fundraising after Harris’ departure, but they are unlikely to reach the 4 percent threshold in four approved polls before the Dec. 19 debate in Los Angeles -- a requirement in order to participate in the debate.

Speaking to supporters at a campaign stop in Des Moines on Thursday, Booker accused the DNC of undermining the party’s values.

“It’s really unfortunate that the party that’s seeking justice and fairness and inclusion, has created a set of rules that can be undermined so easily,” Booker said.

In an email to Politico, Castro lamented the lack of diversity in the candidates “who have met the DNC’s requirements to qualify for the next debate.”

“This process needs to be fixed,” he said.

The DNC has defended its rules, pointing out that the 2020 campaign has “been the most inclusive debate process with more women and candidates of color participating in more debates than billionaires.”

DNC spokeswoman Xochitl Hinojosa said the committee's “qualifying criteria has stayed extremely low throughout the entire process.”

To qualify for the Dec. 19 debate in Los Angeles, candidates must have 200,000 unique donors and at least 4 percent support in four approved polls.

Hinojosa said that no candidate who has not met this requirement at this point in the campaign has gone on to be the nominee.

Cory Booker and Julián Castro are not Minority candidates..
they are Senators and need to abide by the rules as everyone else..
Just because their skin is darker- they still have the same rules.
If they don't qualify its not because of the dems..
Its because they couldn't get the donations to go forward.
the rules, they need'

Democratic debate once again in peril as candidates threaten to boycott over union dispute
By Marisa Schultz | Fox News

Next week's Democratic debate is now in jeopardy after all seven candidates slated to participate said they will refuse to take the stage over a labor strike at the proposed venue -- chaos that comes after the location was already moved once.

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, entrepreneur Andrew Yang, former Vice President Joe Biden, environmentalist Tom Steyer, South Bend, Ind. Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar all announced in rapid succession Friday afternoon their plans to sit out the Thursday debate at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) if the college's food service workers are picketing.

"I stand with them," Warren tweeted Friday. "The DNC [Democratic National Committee] should find a solution that lives up to our party's commitment to fight for working people. I will not cross the union's picket line even if it means missing the debate."

.@UniteHere11 is fighting for better wages and benefits—and I stand with them. The DNC should find a solution that lives up to our party's commitment to fight for working people. I will not cross the union's picket line even if it means missing the debate.

10:37 AM - Dec 13, 2019

Sanders immediately followed with his own tweet in support of the workers of Unite Here Local 11, a labor union representing the hospitality and food service workers at the university.


Bernie Sanders

@BernieSanders
I stand with the workers of @UniteHere11 on campus at Loyola Marymount University fighting Sodexo for a better contract. I will not be crossing their picket line.

11:11 AM - Dec 13, 2019

A Sanders campaign spokesperson told Fox News that if the labor dispute isn't resolved and there isn't an alternative venue, Sanders will skip the Los Angeles debate, which will be co-hosted by PBS NewsHour and Politico.

"He's not going to cross the picket line. Simple as that," the campaign spokesperson said.

The Democratic National Committee did not immediately have a comment.

The debate was initially scheduled to be held at the University of California, Los Angeles, but the DNC canceled the location on Nov. 6 over ongoing labor disputes between the university and AFSCME Local 3299. LMU was picked as the alternative site.

Local 11 announced Friday it would protest the debate's second site because contract negotiations have stalled between the union and Sodexo, which runs food operations for students and employees at LMU's campus. About 150 dishwashers, cashiers, cooks and servers are affected by the union dispute.

“We had hoped that workers would have a contract with wages and affordable health insurance before the debate next week. Instead, workers will be picketing when the candidates come to campus,” Susan Minato, the co-president of UNITE HERE Local 11, said in a statement.

A union rep told Fox News the food service employees had been working without a contract for several weeks and had already held several pickets in an attempt to force school leaders to provide them with better wages, benefits and working conditions.

The employees were planning to work as normal on debate day, but didn't rule out the possibility of work stoppage, the union spokesperson said.

A source familiar with the matter said the DNC and LMU were not made aware of the issue until after the union sent a letter to the candidates Friday about their picket. Officials at the DNC were looking into the matter on Friday.

A Sodexo spokesperson told Fox News they are searching for a solution.

"Sodexo is 100 percent committed to reaching an agreement, and any statement that we have left the bargaining table is not accurate," the spokesperson said. "We have been negotiating in good faith with the Unite Here Local 11 since December of last year with a goal to reach a new collective bargaining agreement that is equitable for everyone, including our employees, and we still intend to achieve such an agreement.”

It's unclear whether the DNC could move the debate location again in such short notice with the avalanche of candidates threatening to bow out.

"We must live our values and there is nothing more core to the Democratic Party than the fight for the working people," Yang tweeted.


Andrew Yang????

I won’t cross the @UniteHere11 picket line to attend next week’s debate. We must live our values and there is nothing more core to the Democratic Party than the fight for working people. I support @UniteHere11 in their fight for the compensation and benefits they deserve.

11:35 AM - Dec 13, 2019

"We’ve got to stand together with @UniteHere11 for affordable health care and fair wages," Biden said. "A job is about more than just a paycheck. It's about dignity."

Steyer tweeted: "I support @UNITEHERE11. If their dispute with @sodexoUSA is not resolved before the debate, I will not cross the picket line. I trust the DNC will find a solution ahead of the debate, and I stand with @LoyolaMarymount workers in their fight for fair wages and benefits."

"As I said at my event with labor leaders here in Miami, I will not cross the picket line and I will stand with @UniteHere11 to fight for the dignity of work," Klobuchar tweeted.

The best was when Yang said we need women in leadership along with men because "when you have a bunch of men and leave them alone they tend to become morons".

Pete Knocked it out of the park. I like all of it better when there are fewer candidates, of course, and as we progress it'll fine-tune even more.
