However, it's a complete non sequitor to say that therefore Sanders should not be the current nominee. If one's goal is to beat Trump, then one must nominate the candidate that the largest share of people will actually turn out and vote for. 2019-12-15T19:20:02Z Comment by Historiansplaining The Dem party of New York did throw over 100,000 off the rolls. 2019-12-15T19:13:15Z Comment by Historiansplaining they aren't "naive" -- it is a question of whose interests they represent 2019-12-15T19:00:18Z Comment by Historiansplaining So it's better strategy to hide what you actually believe, and try to trick enough people in voting for you? What effect do you think that will have in the long term? 2019-12-15T18:45:59Z Comment by Historiansplaining Toby, your guest has an argument based on evidence, not a "belief" 2019-12-15T18:44:02Z
