DNC Denies Rigging Election Against Socialist Sanders
By Breitbart. A spokeswoman for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) denied allegations by members of both parties that the panel is sabotaging socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) efforts to become the Democrat party’s presidential nominee in a bid to help so-called moderate and establishment figures like former vice president Joe Biden.
Sanders and the DNC have a strained relationship.
President Donald Trump and some Democrats, including the Bernie campaign and its supporters, have recently indicated that the DNC is rigging the ongoing election against the Vermont socialist and in favor of so-called moderates and establishment figures like Joe Biden, the former vice president.
DNC spokeswoman Xochitl Hinojosa, however, blamed Republicans for disseminating the claim that the committee is stacking the deck against Sanders. . .
Following Biden’s rebound Super Tuesday after a big victory in South Carolina, which prompted three candidates to drop out, the contest for the Democrat party’s presidential nomination increasingly looks like a two-person race between the former vice president and Sanders. Biden and Sanders have emerged as the front-runners.
The Democrat establishment came together and crushed Bernie Sanders, AGAIN! Even the fact that Elizabeth Warren stayed in the race was devastating to Bernie and allowed Sleepy Joe to unthinkably win Massachusetts. It was a perfect storm, with many good states remaining for Joe!

If Obama Is Trying to Block Bernie, He Should Say Why
By The Federalist. Former Vice President Joe Biden landed a series of major endorsements from high-profile Democrats Monday, including former 2020 competitors who ended their campaigns to get behind the establishment favorite.
Just 48 hours before the nationwide contests on Super Tuesday, former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg dropped out the race and announced his endorsement for Biden in Dallas Monday night. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who ended her campaign earlier in the afternoon, also endorsed Biden on the Dallas stage along with yet another former Democratic candidate, former Texas Congressman Beto O’Rourke. On the same day, Biden also secured endorsements from former Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and former U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice.
The slew of endorsements on the eve of the biggest day of the Democratic primary illustrates a “moderate” coalescing around Biden following a 28-point blow-out win in South Carolina that has resurrected his sunken campaign and offered new hope to Democrats seeking to thwart Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ momentum. As the Biden campaign suffered blow after blow by performing worse-than-expected in the first three contests, Sanders eclipsed Biden as the new frontrunner. Sanders captured the popular vote in Iowa, took home first place in New Hampshire and claimed victory in Nevada by 26 points, all while the Biden campaign went into free-fall, hinging its bets on South Carolina as its “firewall.”
It’s no secret President Barack Obama is anxious about a Sanders nomination. Last fall, the former president, who has refrained from getting involved in the Democratic contest, privately remarked that he would speak out if Sanders appeared likely to capture enough delegates needed for the party’s coronation in Milwaukee.
