Dem Rep. Dean Phillips: ‘I’m Not Running Against President Biden ... I’m Running for the Future’

EXCERPT:

PHILLIPS: “Well, the good news, Michael, is thank goodness we still live in the country in which voters make the decision if they want, this is a choice. Now I’ve got the Democratic National Committee competing against me in extraordinarily large machine. Of course, it’s rigged against any challenger candidate under any circumstance. But what a beautiful example of American democracy where anybody, 35 years old, U.S. citizen born here, can enter this ring in New Hampshire just like I did yesterday, first in the nation primary since 103 years ago, talking with people making your case. We’re going to win New Hampshire, that’ll put us on the radar screen. And I’m going to introduce myself to the country and only give people a choice, I’m not running against President Biden, I admire him. I’m running for the future. I’m running to provide people a choice, because if Democrats with a big D defeat democracy with a small d by pushing people aside, telling them to stand down and get out, that is antithetical to meeting the moment.”
