Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: I'm not the only one to see Biden as 'weak, fumbling' [View all]democratisphere
(17,235 posts)42. Biden is our most qualified candidate with huge charisma.
NONE of the other candidates come close to Joe Biden's appeal to the greatest number of voters. The other candidates can't sell themselves on their own merits, so they must resort to attacking Joe Biden, the established front runner, in an attempt to save their own failing campaigns. Joe Biden will be the victor and the Democratic candidate in 2020.

I think his work looks a bit better than what Harris seems to have done.

That's your criticism of his candidacy? Criticizing his appearance? Better broadcast your assessment

Who cares about Aronoff? Voters like him for more than debate soundbites or one-issue pique.

Polls show that it's not about what Aronoff sees, whether we agree or disagree with her. Polls show
