(2,657 posts)I am talking about all of the states that used to be part of the confederacy..the states South of the Mason Dixon line and west of Texas. However, I am also aware of the importance of Texas, as well as every other state in the U.S.
Strength in the former Confederate South is a good barometer for strength of African Americans. Do I think Warren might be able to win the nomination and the G.E.? Yes, and yes. Do I think Bernie can? I think Biden and Warren both have a better chance than Bernie does. Warren brings the advantage of being a woman, which is a big plus. Bernie Sanders does not. If someone likes Sanders types programs and wants to win, I believe that Warren is the way to go. So, which matters more, the woman advantage of Warren or the Moderate advantage of Biden? I would say Biden because in head to heads with Trump Biden tends to score better. That does not mean that Warren could not beat him. I am just explaining why I lean toward Biden. It also explains why I think it is a mistake to choose Sanders over Warren, because I think she has a big advantage over him.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
