Dean Phillips Asks Wisconsin Supreme Court to Put Him on Democratic Presidential Primary Ballot

On January 26, Congressman Dean Phillips asked the Wisconsin Supreme Court to put him on the Democratic presidential primary ballot. So far, only Joe Biden is on the ballot. Phillips v Wisconsin Election Commission. Wisconsin is not a state in which the parties decide for themselves whom to list on their presidential primary ballot. Instead a state commission decides. Here is Phillips’ brief.

  1. Florida used to have a similar commission to select candidates for presidential primaries. The 11th Circuit ruled it unconstitutional and we now have the political parties themselves select candidates. Duke v. Smith, 13 F.3d 388, 391 (11th Cir.), writ denied, 513 U.S. 867 (1994).

    It should mean that the state of Florida has no further role in selecting candidates but nope, they can still reject to place candidates from the list. (My lawsuit is testing this).

    I hope Phillips gets this law ruled unconstitutional, too.

  2. Both the Democrats and Republicans are locking people out their primaries. Technically, IMO they have to right to do so, but it’s not very good for the political health of those parties. It’s definitely time for new parties.

  5. It’s almost as if the Chinese have taken over the Democrats, and the Russians have taken over the Republicans, and both are trying to force Americans to choose between the.

  6. Only the part about Chinese taking over demon rats is true. The other is a manufactured lie and psychological projection .

  7. Who have Republicans locked out of their primaries and where? There were people who withdrew or failed to draw support. Very different from the commie fascist demon rat process.

  8. Time for what new parties? GOP finally getting great and working to make America great again. All kinds of new parties pop up all the time. What will another one do dramatically different?

  9. DID HITLER MAKE GERMANY GREAT AGAIN ???

    HOW MANY *GREAT AGAIN* [IN GERMAN] IN HITLER’S MEIN KAMPF ???

  10. Hitler made Germany great again for a short period of time, but his plan for making Germany great again predictably backfired because it was centered on big government central planning, imperialist world conquest, and an incel fuehrer with no track record of success in anything except politics, no success with women, no wives or children or heirs of any kind, and no future.

    It took Hitler until he was near dictator of Europe to even snag Eva Braun, and who knows what she even let him do sexually, if anything. He was a failure professionally and in every respect. National socialism is based on the idiotic idea that top down government planning works.

    Trump is the exact opposite of Hitler in all those respects. America First is not based on world military conquest – we want to bring the troops home and protect our own borders.

    Economically, we’re for cutting taxes and red tape and unleashing the power of free market capitalism.

    In matters of government, we’re for restoring the Jeffersonian ideals of localisation and minimalisation of government.

    Again, all opposites of Hitler and his Nazi movement – big government, centralization, standardization, central planning, economy centered on government redistribution, unsustainable plans for military world conquest.

    Personally, Trump is the opposite of Hitler – hugely successful in business and entertainment before politics, successful conqueror of women, wise patriarch, large and lovely family of heirs to preserve and build a future for.

    Left wing propagandists want to paint Trump as Putin’s bitch. In the real world, unlike commie fake news bizarro world, Putin has no acknowledged male heirs and Russia’s economy is a tiny shambles compared to the US. Biden is Xi Jinping’s bitch, and Trump is the ultimate winner.
