I honestly don’t know what to think at this point; just putting this out there.

    If the primary system is already “loosely democratic” then we’re not really throwing anything away by choosing a different nominee.

    I disagree. If you start with a flawed system and then go to a worse system, you’re marching in the wrong direction.

    If Biden legitimately has health issues, he should resign as President, not just bow out of reelection. The fact that very few are calling for that belies the fact that few actually believes he’s unhealthy. They just don’t think he’ll win and want a different candidate.

      Biden is going to lose to Trump; that’s why he needs to withdraw now. He was on shaky ground in 2020, and his popularity and trustworthiness among even Centrists has crumbled, nevermind among progressives and leftists. It’s not just about health issues.
