Looking back, how did that happen? Name recognition? Who was their best candidate?

They wanted Obama without having Obama. I’m sure they went to Michelle first.

They picked the one guy with all that damn scandal hovering over and around him, the guy with the most scandal possible.

Can you imagine being a supporter of one of the other candidates on Super Tuesday who voluntarily dropped out en masse to give this guy the nomination?? They knew then he was declining mentally then.

They all basically took your money, bent over, and took it hard from the DNC with no lube.

Now imagine knowing all this and still supporting Biden and the Democrat Party.

If you look strictly at his resume, yes he is the best they have. Apparently he is not widely disliked and to coin a phrase, it’s his turn. He is the closest thing they have to a senior statesman. Sanders is unelectable, because outside of the crank vote, he doesn’t appeal to anyone.

Clinton was similarly qualified and probably more capable than Biden, but she was 100% unlikable. Biden in contrast is a very likable candidate.

100 years from now historians are going to be scratching their heads in amazement and wondering how a well established and sophisticated political party nominated someone that they KNEW was mentally incompetent.

The dems big solution to old white men is older white men.

He's a vessel to make someone like Kamala Harris or Susan Rice President without one of them having to head the ticket.

No. If they went with Tulsi or Yang, they would have steamrolled Trump, but they’re not part of the Establishment so they silenced them.

Yes and that tells you all you need to know about where the Democrats are at as a party

The people that would vote for him like him, more or less. Sure, I could buy that.

It was a total set up by the DNC. They hand picked Biden due to internal polling in the Rust Belt. Then got Buttigeg to drop out BEFORE Super Tues, after he started to surge. And left Warren in place to long enough to take votes from Sanders.

No, the Dems shot themselves in the foot when they were unfair to Tulsi Gabbard and cast her out of the debates, despite her meeting the qualifications. Woman of color, Veteran, smart, beautiful, wise on many if not all issues. She could have easily made Trump look like a fool. I have been called a White nationalist on her, but I voted Tulsi and would again.
