Democratic Primaries
Showing Original Post only (View all)OK, I'm switching to Warren. [View all]
My main criterion for choosing a primary candidate is that they are capable of inspiring people to action (namely voting). I have sometimes called this "charisma," but that's a little bit of a stretch with Warren. What she does have in spades* is passion combined with intelligence. The passion inspires, but the intelligence may be what draws centrists to her where Sanders never could. Her command of her very well thought out plans is, for me anyway, inspiring on its own.
Every time I hear her speak I think, "Yeah, we could actually do that!" A great answer to the question of how we calculate wealth in he interview after the debate. "They have teams of money managers. They figure this out all the time for loans." (Or words to that effect.)
So what tipped me to switch was the positive media response. Maybe she can keep her momentum. Until she doesn't, she's my pick.

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
