A humble proposal concerning posting in the Democratic Primaries forum.
DUers:
We're essentially down to Biden and Sanders. One of these guys is going to be our candidate. Whichever ends up our nominee, he will need all our support.
At this point, the supporters on neither side will convince the other. There is nothing to be gained by pissing-off the other side than re-electing Trump.
Please - please - read your post before hitting "Post my Thread." If your post is going to piss-off supporters for the other guy, don't do it.
As an old guy raised in the south, I can't decide if I'm amused or just pleased.
It turns out that a lot of white southerners (like me) were waiting to see how African Americans in South Carolina voted to decide for whom they would vote.
We were waiting to be told by AAs how to vote. The arc of the moral universe sometimes takes interesting bends.
MSNBC calls Arkansas for Biden.
I can't remember the last time I voted with the winner in any Arkansas vote.
GO TEAM!
I'm in for Joe.
Some days ago, I decided to base my Super Tuesday vote on how VP Biden did with the AA vote in South Carolina.

Per exit polls, VP Biden took 60% of the AA vote in South Carolina. His favorability among AA voters in South Carolina swamped the others.
Monday is the last day for early voting in Arkansas. I will be standing at the county courthouse at 8:00 to vote for Joe.
I haven't decided for whom I will be voting but I've decided how I will decide.
My rule from the beginning has been which candidate has the best chance to beat Trump. The results so far have not answered my question of which candidate fits that bill.
Since I have to vote no later than Tuesday, I've decided to wait until after the South Carolina primary this weekend. Whichever candidate does best with the AA vote in South Carolina gets my vote.
If we are to beat Trump, AA Democrats must turnout in force. At this point, the only metric I have is how the candidates do with AA voters in South Carolina. I'm waiting for Steve Kornacki to give me the breakdown.
Who was yelling at Joe when he tried to present his closing argument?
This debate is killing me.
I don't know with which candidate I am most angry.
Jeez guys, don't take the moderators' bait. Attack Trump - not each other.
Arkansas early voting for the primary starts Monday.
For several years I have been one of the first two or three people to vote at my county courthouse the first day of early voting - it's a matter of who is the first standing in line at the courthouse door at opening time.
I won't be standing in line this Monday. I'm still undecided - for the first time ever.
Arkansas votes on March 3. I can early vote up to 5:00 on March 2. The current plan is to wait through the South Carolina primary - just to see what happens. I don't think it will make any difference who does how well in Nevada and South Carolina. I'm just hoping something will happen to provide some clarity.
I am convinced this is the most important election in my life. Such an important decision requires thought and information.
OK, now a feel like one of the cool kids.
Thanks for the hearts. And here I thought only my wife and mother loved me - and mom isn't always sure.
