5. I think Joe Biden will want someone who will be his "Joe Biden."

Not to say a clone of himself, but someone who will have his back the way he had Barack Obama's back.

And someone who can help move legislation through Congress they way he did. And someone he trusts on foreign policy matters.

Early in the race I thought that might be Cory Booker. Now? I'm thinking Sen. Klobuchar is mostly likely.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
