Democratic Primaries

It’s clear to me that Biden is considered the “safe” candidate most likely to beat Trump, and that progressivism took a back seat to Democratic voters’ apparent #1 priority — unseating Trump.

If that’s the case, I’m simply expressing my opinion as to how to go all in in that endeavor. Personally, I’d rather see Elizabeth Warren as Biden’s running mate. But Warren wouldn’t advance the apparent #1 objective. She’s White, she’s extremely progressive and she’s relatively old.

Just because I support (present tense) Warren for president doesn’t disqualify me from having an opinion regarding the best choice Biden can make to maximize his chances of beating Trump.

I remain disappointed that Democratic voters didn’t seize a once in a generation opportunity to move the country forward with a progressive, electable woman candidate for president. I still feel we made a mistake in going with an old school candidate who either doesn’t see or refuses to accept that Republicans are not our opponents, they are the enemy and we are literally at war for the soul of our country. And that “working across the aisle” isn’t gonna fly.

But, that’s who Democratic voters in their infinite wisdom chose, and I will vote for him. And I’m merely adding my 2¢ that, given Democratic voters’ apparent priority, I believe Kamala Harris on the ticket stands the best chance of beating Trump.
