There is one name that I would like to see on that debate forum that isn’t there, that’s of Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard. The Sniper, duly nicknamed for her rapid fire attack on Sen. Harris, is a worthy candidate that holds everyone accountable for their actions. She is also the only female war veteran. I think it a big mistake leaving her off of the debate stage. I’m starting to feel a 2016 Sanders end run game plan here by the DNC. She levels criticism on one of the top contenders and now she seems absent off of the stage. I don’t like it, no, I don’t like it one bit. I also don’t like mint chocolate ice cream but they haven’t stop selling that, so… it really doesn’t matter what I like, still think it’s wrong though…. both, Gabbard not being included and mint chocolate.
The next debate is on the verge of needing two nights
