General Discussion

There are about three three 3.5 months until the November election. So, explain to me how any of these democratic insiders are going to find a new candidate, get them on the ballot in all 50 states, create a marketing campaign, fund raise, hire and train staff, build a get-out the vote campaign and build bridges with the fourteen million Americans who already voted in the primary? It is political suicide to do this at this stage of the process. They had their chance in the primary and chose not to exercise that option.

I have noticed that it is not the progressive Democrats or the Black Caucus who are clamoring for Biden to step down. So, what is it that scares these white, generally wealthy democrats about Joseph R. Biden? I think it is more about greed and money than anything else. As much as they pretend to care about social issues, these wealthy Democrats have a lot in common with wealthy Republicans. They do not want an economic populist for president who supports estate tax reform, unions and who keeps talking about getting the rich to pay their fair share.
