56. I agree. Briefly she was my first choice which may have been bad Karma...

...since no first choice of mine has ever won the Democratic nomination, including my second first choice after switching from Senator Warren.

As I have never voted for any candidate for President who was not a Democrat - we had a bad scare there with Senator Sanders taking the first primaries - it is obvious I have voted for winners in the general election.

It is clear that the Republicans in the Senate are irresponsible nut cases, so I think it is important that we take it out of their hands.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
