Eh...

The amount of people who consider themselves progressives but who still want a DNC picking favorites in primaries is still really fucking high.

The end goal needs to be an unbiased party (and that's what we have right now) because that's the only way primary voters get to pick the candidate they want.

We don't need a DNC that favors progressives, because Dem voters favor progressive policy.

It's like Usain Bolt showing up for a JR high field day. We don't need to rig the games, we're obviously going to win as long as it's a fair race.

Under no scenario should "the party" be telling voters who to support during any primary.
