Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: I'm getting bashed for posting what I hear from millennials, see more below the video: [View all]Nice conflation of socialism with social democracy (perfect example of the latter being the Nordic countries, which have very robust, and yet also highly regulated, capitalist economies combined with a vibrant welfare state). They also have far greater upward social mobility than the US (the only country with worse upward social mobility in the OECD than the US is the UK.) Far less wealth inequality (and I mean FAR less) than the US as well.
You really should do some basic research before you post pablum.

Meant as a deflection as well as somewhat tongue in cheek, so far it's worked.

And I hope it's correct, because I fear another 4 years of Trump more than anything

The polling data in 2016 was within the MOE nationally and in key swing states.
