How would you feel if the DNC made a bold move and went with a co-chair? [View all]

Perez and Ellison. I'm not asking because I think it would be some kind of come together moment. I think the two could work together well and the job is big enough for it.

I understand some will think it can't be done because of current rules. This is the DNC. Rules can be changed or ignored.

Like the old staying goes "If you have two starting quarterbacks, you have none". hughee99 Feb 2017 #8

What we are mainly dealing with here is structural. NCTraveler Feb 2017 #14

Yes, but when game time rolls around, you only have one QB on the field at a time. hughee99 Feb 2017 #23

Ultimately those two agendas have to succeed together anyway so why not start now? TeamPooka Feb 2017 #22

I have no problem with that (though it is not going to happen). demmiblue Feb 2017 #9

No, it's really hard to have "equals" in a leadership position. One voice is needed. SharonAnn Feb 2017 #11

No. The organization needs a leader. The operative word there is "a". As in one. Stinky The Clown Feb 2017 #12

Why? Besides ... Ellison is toast already. Susan Sarandon adores him and ... NurseJackie Feb 2017 #15

oh... didn't know Sarandon liked him... shit uponit7771 Feb 2017 #18

I fully understand your position. NCTraveler Feb 2017 #20
