Should Clinton, Sanders, and O'Malley all speak at the Democratic Convention?

I've seen some discussion here about which candidates should or should not be allowed to speak at the Democratic Convention.

So, it seemed like a good idea to have a poll on the issue.

That is just petulant nonsense. There's no way Sanders won't have a speaking role. None. And Clinton would be stupid to deny him one, and she's not stupid.

"The Queen," really? Can't you give the churlish misogyny a damn rest? I'm sure the queen will allow the communist revolutionary (see what I did there ?) to say a few words.

O'Malley? Why? He got less than 3%. He was a wooden stiff as a candidate. And he will never again get close to the nomination.

Maybe you should admit that she has demonstrated time and time again that she feels entitled to be the nominee and has no patience for anyone who dares to question her. THAT IS WHY THE SNARKY QUEEN COMMENT!

By the way, I was raised by a single Mom who taught by example to respect women. Who I don't respect are power hungry elitists.
