If DNC has an open convention, it is open to anyone include Bernie

Ben Shapiro pointed this out, he thinks it could be someone nobody is talking about, Bernie Sanders noting he's the only democrat or already has a pretty good base from the get go.

He would be absolutely routed in the election IMO, but who knows. It could right the wrong to the bernie bros in one sense and also provide much needed referendum on socialisms. Obviously if Bernie Wins it would be equally devastating embarrassment.

How it works apparently, if Biden releases his delegates they can vote for anyone, if nobody wins the first round the "super delegates" get to vote the next round. Because of this and other factors like campaign finance Kamala is still the odds favorite.

The most dangerous scenario to Trump is this, with Kamala picking a rust belt democrat like Shapiro (PA) government and focusing all there energy on winning that state

The last thing the US needs is another geriatric dinosaur running for president srs. It's fuked up the DNC robbed Bernie in 2016, conspired against him in favor of Hillary, but his time is past.

Well then that means it would be open to anyone, including Hillary, who defeated Bernie in the primaries.

Shapiro uh...

As laughably disorganized as the DNC is, I'm pretty sure even they will check a potential candidate's "early life" section on wiki before they commit to them. Been that way for almost 250 yrs now.

The Bernie Bots never thought there was anything wrong though, remember?

2015-2016 Bernie was the breath of fresh air that was going to destroy the establishment and get dat dere corporate wall street money out of politics.

Then Hillary and the DNC bent him over, and just like flipping a light switch they immediately rolled over and became Hillary supporters with him. Hell, I felt bad FOR them, but none of them seemed to give AF, so...

It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

Also just seems “un-democratic” for what the Dems did to Bernie. Another reason why I roll my eyes when they chant “Drumpft is anti-democracy”

After everything we have seen in the past 4 years are we supposed to believe that the delegates actual get to choose the candidate?

Ridiculous, you know thats picked by the deep state and they are delegates can either go along with it or pay for their own week long party.

Open to anyone, butstill chosen by donors.
You know,.

Just keep telling their zealots how it's still democracy and they'll eat it up regardless of DNC's track record of denying them the very thing they always fret over. Democracy is nothing but a buzz word to rally the idiots behind whatever The Party tells them to swallow.

The ZH linkspells it out nicely:
Democracy Really Is Dying in Darkness—But by Whom?

Never in modern presidential history has a political party staged a veritable inside coup to remove their current president from his ongoing candidacy for his party’s nomination and reelection.

Stranger still, the very elites and grandees, who now are using every imaginable means of deposing Biden as their nominee, are the very public voices that just weeks ago insisted that candidate Biden was “sharp as a tack” and “fit as a fiddle.” And they damned any who thought otherwise!

They are also the identical operators whose machinations ensured that there would not be an open Democratic primary. They demonized the few on the Left who weakly challenged Biden in the primaries. Yet now they will select a replacement candidate who likely never received a single primary vote.

Note further: Biden’s impending forced abdication is not because he is non compos mentis.

Rather, the inside move is due to Biden’s disastrous debate exposure that confirmed his dementia could no longer be disguised by a conspiracy of leftist politicos and media.

But far more importantly, the impetus for removal is driven by the admission that the cognitively Biden is headed for a climactic November defeat.

Were Biden now ahead in the polls by five points, these same backroom machinists would be insisting that he was still Pericles.

Yet now Biden is being un-personed and Trotskyized, as we prepare the new groupthink narrative of his likely surrogate—a soon to be praised eloquent, mellifluous, and articulate Cicero-Harris.

That Biden will likely remain as president until January 20, 2025, should remind the country the Left is more worried about its own next four-year continuance in power than the fate of the country that now admittedly will be guided in the next six months by a president judged unfit by his own supporters to run for the very office that he will still keep holding.

Further irony arises when those who, as supposedly guardians of democratic norms, pontificated to the country the last nine years about the Trump-Hitlerian threat to democracy. Yet now they so cavalierly work overtime on how:

a) to pull off the removal of their candidate from the November ballot on grounds of senility,

b) but not the removal of the same president from office (their own fate is more precious than our collective fate as a nation),

c) while trying to select, rather than elect, a replace candidate,

d) without ever offering any explanation, much less an apology, how a Democrat president from January 20, 2021, was daily declared vibrant, dynamic, and engaged but suddenly one day after June 27, 2024, was remanufactured as not?

Perhaps as an aid and primer on Biden removal they should reread the essay by former Obama Pentagon official Rosa Books. Just 11 days after the Trump inauguration, she published in Foreign Policy, “3 Ways to Get Rid of President Trump Before 2020”.

It was a veritable manual on the various ways of removing the just inaugurated president—listing immediate alternatives to the distant 2020 election: impeachment and conviction, 25th-Amendment removal, and, barring all that, a military coup: “The fourth possibility is one that until recently I would have said was unthinkable in the United States of America: a military coup, or at least a refusal by military leaders to obey certain orders.”

So, to make sense of what these self-appointed and sanctimonious protectors of democracy are trying to pull off demands an Orwellian vocabulary—memory hole, newspeak, unperson, and groupthink.

Yet there is one more irony.

Very soon, those who welcomed the protests of summer 2020 radicals, and exempted the rioting and violence, and then again did nothing in 2024 as mobs tore apart campuses and shut down public facilities, will host a Chicago convention—where those very same liberated forces may wreak havoc on the outside, while their backroom progenitors, with threats, money, and the media, will wreak havoc on democracy on the inside.
Remember: it's not a coup/insurrection when it's the democrats themselves doing it to their used up puppet.
I will stand firm, I refuse to kneel - The fury in me is divine
My dark grave awaits, my fate is revealed - But I'm not afraid to die

Bernie is older than Biden. He will be 83 this year. regardless of how sharp he is, age will be an issue...although he is against funding Israel, so he would get some brownie points from the Gen Z demographic for that.

An open convention sounds like a threat to democracy
