The Democratic National Committee officially announced on Thursday that 10 presidential candidates qualified for a spot on the debate stage in September.
The only serious anti-war candidate, Tulsi Gabbard, did not make the list.
Former vice president Joe Biden and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) along with Sen. Cory Booker (N.J); South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg; former Obama Cabinet secretary Julián Castro; Sen. Kamala D. Harris (Calif.); Sen. Amy Klobuchar (Minn.); former congressman Beto O’Rourke (Tex.); Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.); and tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang will be on the stage on Sept. 12 in Houston.
The debate will be hosted by ABC News in partnership with Univision, and moderated by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos, ABC News "World News Tonight" Anchor and Managing Editor David Muir, ABC News Correspondent Linsey Davis and Univision Anchor Jorge Ramos.
Because of the way the debate rules are set up, Gabbard has a strong chance of making the cut for the October debate which will be held in Ohio. The Ohio debate is scheduled for Oct. 15 with Oct. 16 reserved if more than 10 candidates make the cut.

She is toast. A decent person (and she appears to be one) cannot play games devised by psychopaths and expect to win against the psychopaths. Her only chance is to go outside of double-headed psychopaths party and talk directly to people. Like one D.T. did.
