I think that the fact that Biden has a commanding lead in a field of twenty two, shows how weak the field really is. I don't buy this "Madison Avenue" style packaging of the man as some sort of middle of the road alternative in a party of extremists. What's more troubling is the lack of vitality and robust energy on the candidate's part. That and his garbled speech would seem to indicate a state funeral about six months into his term.
I hope you are wrong. I am voting for anyone who looks like he can win against Trump. That is all I care about the next 4 years.
I don't care who it is, if it is the neighborhood dog catcher, I'm there. Anything to oust Trump and the GOP. Biden is not my first choice, but if that gets Trump out and Dems in, I'm on board.
Garbled speech? Have you listened to that toad Trump lately? He can't get one simple, intelligent sentence out without repeating half of it more than once.
But we have learned from Hillary's loss that it was not a loss. AT ALL. Trump has no business even being the president.
But that's another story. It takes two years to explain it all. We are still in the middle of it, despite the desperate attempts of the GOP to declare it is over and done with. NO. IT IS NOT. But... we have learned that Trump can be beaten easily. We need to focus on THAT and worry about not being underwhelming. Hillary was blindsided, by Trump and the fact that he begged Russia to hack her emails did not help her. AT ALL. That is in the Mueller Report and it is just now coming out. Piece by piece.

Hillary lost Wharton. Accept it and adapt to win. Y'all old people should listen to the youth like Neven. That's what was part of the problem, you didn't during the last election and now you aren't again. Listen to the youth.
Well I'm hoping Alec Baldwin will throw his hat into the race because he would destroy Trump vote wise and mentally. But out of the 22 Candidates - Biden is probably the right choice. Personally I would go with Kamala Harris. Cheers!
Ya I don't really know much about her just how she handled questioning Barr and Muchine she seems like a real cool cucumber and smart. Not sure who this Sharpton is or what he stands for but I'll probably do some research. Cheers!
Al Sharpton? I don't know why his name came up. He has a bad history, but he seems to be sane now. He was really nutso in the 80's trying to bait people into saying everyone was a racist and everything was race-related. He has chilled considerably since then.
Kamala is pretty great. She was flawless with grilling that moron Barr. That was classic.
That said, I don't think she has the recognition to beat Trump. I think we need someone like Biden who will pave the way for Kamala to reach the Presidency maybe next term. Biden is on his last legs. I don't think he can go two terms. That is his biggest shortcoming.
Alec Baldwin was thinking of going into politics awhile ago. He was not very popular back then because he was in the news with a bad divorce and then his daughter and he got into a fight and it was all over the media that he called her a PIG. That was not a good look for Alec.
But I think he is brilliant and knows what he is talking about at least. He knows issues. That is more than Trump ever knew.
Personally, I’ve seen enough of white male septuagenarians. It goes without saying Trump is hilariously unworthy.
Without getting into each of their positions, how much of a hoot would it be to see Trump lose to a gay man, or a man or woman of color, or a Hispanic? All said candidates are more qualified and fit to govern than the current lying fool.

And I will not take offense at being called a septuagenarians---but I had to look it up to see if I was in that category. When I hit 60, that was the last age I paid any attention to.
