The Democratic Party's plans for the upcoming presidential debates has stirred up some behind-the-scenes controversy.
One Democratic 2016 campaign adviser who spoke to Business Insider said they believe the Democratic National Committee's debate schedule was "worked out" to benefit Hillary Clinton and hurt her opponents.
The adviser, who requested anonymity in order to speak frankly about the party's campaign arm, suggested the DNC is hosting a small number of debates in an attempt to give Clinton's more low profile rivals "less screen time." They also suggested the relatively late schedule of the debates will make it harder for Clinton's lesser known opponents to introduce themselves to voters.
"While a six sanctioned debate schedule is consistent with the precedent set by the DNC during the 2004 and 2008 cycles, this year the DNC will further manage the process by implementing an exclusivity requirement," the statement announcing the debates explained. "Any candidate or debate sponsor wishing to participate in DNC debates, must agree to participate exclusively in the DNC-sanctioned process. Any violation would result in forfeiture of the ability to participate in the remainder of the debate process."
Clinton's campaign declined to comment on this story.
Lis Smith, a spokesperson for former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley (D), who is expected to announce his campaign later this month, referred us to a statement she released after the debate announcement wherein she criticized the exclusivity requirement.
"If Governor O'Malley decides to run, we will expect a full, robust, and inclusive set of debates — both nationally and in early primary and caucus states. This has been customary in previous primary seasons. In a year as critical as 2016, exclusivity does no one any favors," Smith said.

Well, DUH!
Verse 1 chapter 1.
It worked for Obama, so why not use the same tactic to win the white house again.
Actually V1.Ch.1 is Dimwits protect their demigod Slick Willie. V1 Ch.2 is Dimwits protect his wife.
The ‘Rat debate schedule is not being manipulated to protect Hillary! (tm) any more than the GOPe debate schedule is there to protect the Jebi.
Actually, no, devoted Democrats won’t care if it’s Hillary, as long as it isn’t one of the evil Republicans, they will vote for the candidate in question.
You can’t expect the lying ass commie ‘RATS to play fair. They are going to spend BILLIONS to make their b*tch the first queen of America with her own Muzzie Brother handmaiden, Huma Weiner.
Heck, even her husband doesn’t like her.
WHY DO PEOPLE SAY DEMOCRATIC????!!!!!
IT’S
D E M O C R A T.
(And, not yelling at you, just venting.)
ROTFLOL......Like nobody saw this coming. at issue therefore is who is setting these debates exactly...as well as who will determine the host.....We can see that coming as well.....
