Who should be our candidate in 2024? It isn't really complicated, though some would like

to make it so: Joseph R. Biden.

Sweep away all of the fact-challenged Republican attacks and the breathless concerns being murmured by our own pearl-clutchers and what you are left with is a, yes, imperfect man who, so far, has been the most accomplished POTUS---both at home and abroad---in this Democrat's 74 years.

Yes, he will be the oldest POTUS in our history, but his years have anchored him in the real world where facts matter and America is STILL the world's best hope and his mind is sharp enough to own the GOP during his nationally televised SOTU address.

I'm still ridin' with Biden and there's room in here for everyone.

For all of the reasons you presented.
Trying to force Biden through a primary would be an unforced error and a gift to the lunatic right.
JMHO

I look forward to seeing some Democratic stars emerge during Biden Administration 2.0, however. We should be on a campaign mindset to develop the next generation.
