They didn't criticize him because they had to interest in trying to make him look like a secret muslim.

I don't know how many Democrats wanted him to say it because I only found two. Gabbard and Manchin. So in other words I couldn't find any.

I don't care how many Democrats wanted him to say it, moderate Muslims who are seeking reforms within the religion wanted it said and they are the ones we should be trying to help.

How to Beat ISIS: Reform Islamic Teaching (Published 2015)

Two former jihadists say Islam needs to have a “candid conversation” about the connection between church teachings and modern Muslim terrorists.

“There is no point in denying it. The statement that this has nothing to do with Islam is disingenuous. It’s as unhelpful as saying this is in essence Islam.”

“We need to have a candid conversation about this and recognize that there is a correlation between scripture and this. There are also geopolitical issues, yes — but there is also a relationship with scripture.”

And some muslims got upset when Bush said "Islamic fascists" in 2006 so what does any of this prove
 
Such a f***ing moron. Then he tries to change reality of what he actually said. Remember when dan quail misspelled potato and it ended his career? I miss that timeline.

This better seriously be the last mega-field debate. The DNC better not have this big of a field in December. They cannot go into 2020 with more than five candidates on stage. I'm not sure who the fifth would be though?

Just go to 5% and that should do it.

Tim Ryan has dropped out. Color me surprised as I didn't know he was still "running." Glad he's running for his seat again.

I think we all wish our government would be more transparent but she knows better than to imply that something sinister is going on, there are Dems and Republicans who are in these meetings. If she's really trying to fuel some kind of conspiracy theory she's an idiot, she can easily just say "I wish the process was more transparent but this is well within the rules that the Republicans created 4 years ago and members of both parties who sit on the appropriate committee's are able to participate" There are things she says and believes that aren't always in line with the rest of the party and I agree with her on several of them but this is just stupid.

Wow she really is going to run third party. I know I predicted this months ago but I'm not sure I truly believed it.

You are making a big leap, not wanting to run for her congressional seat which was going to be a big fight and wouldn't raise her profile vs doing this to set her up for something else after is hardly an indication that she's running 3rd party, especially since she has already said multiple times and even recently that she wouldn't. I was just watching a panel discussion and they were talking about how bad it is to be a member of congress from Hawaii, the weekly flying from Hawaii to D.C. alone is enough to make a lot of people not want to keep that job.

It was only going to be a fight because of what she has done while running for President.

I supposed you are right and she is going to just do other things to hurt Democrats besides running third party but that is her goal. There certainly is no reasonable explanation for what she is doing that doesn't also make her look horrible. I don't see how it could be denied. Its comical to even use her giving her word of something as if it has any meaning at this point.

I just don't get how the other candidates were willing to defend her when its so obvious something fishy is going on. I'VE BEEN SAYING IT ALL YEAR AND I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!
