Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You can in fact vote for whoever you want in the Democratic primaries. It's just that Biden has something like 70% or more support.
Literally a 3 second search. I mean, why lie?

The point, to anyone with eyes, is that debates are a healthy way to measure a candidate's skills and mental capacity and to be seen in touch with the interests of the American people. Also, it gives at least the impression of a Democracy. Not here, however. Not even opening the door is anti-democratic. Hence my point. Worth noting that Biden won in NH yesterday despite not even being in the ballot. The miracles of mail voting, amiright? https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4418655-biden-new-hampshire-democratic-primary-ballot/ Man, is there such thing as TOO MUCH Democratic transparency? Can you feel it? I can.
Worth nothing that Biden's popularity is through the floor throughout the USA. This should not and cannot be ignored. So your claim does not hold as much water as you think it does. https://news.gallup.com/poll/547763/biden-ends-2023-job-approval.aspx
My take is that they will flip Biden for Newson with people have no say on it. But we will see if that happens, if that happens, remember this post! :-)
NH has almost no vote-by-mail ballots; the state has fairly narrow criteria for getting one
Biden won the NH primary because people showed up to vote in person and wrote his name in.
What you're doing is conspiracy-mongering.
