Knitting Together the ‘Inescapable Network of Mutuality’

Important moments during the Democratic debate communicated a sense of belonging.

The Subtext of the Democratic Debate

Primary voters will be looking for a candidate who can bring stability after the chaos of Trump’s presidency.

Biden. Bernie. Harris. Buttigieg. The top-tier candidates are standing off for the first time, and we’re providing fresh analysis.

It’s unclear whether they’re polling well because they’re on television or they’re on television because they’re polling well.

When the president attacks Democratic candidates, he gives them free publicity and makes them more popular.

There’s a wide ideological gap between Biden and Sanders, but they can both win more by persusion than base moblilzation.

The socialists believe the surest way to lose in 2020 is to play it safe with a centrist candidate.

A repeat of the 2016 primary pitting establishment against insurgent would not be good for Democrats.

The question is whether our differences will drive us apart or bring us together in solidarity.
