Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Why I'm supporting the wildest, most radical left wing candidate: [View all]Gothmog
(145,046 posts)sanders is not electable. Sunday night, I gave to three candidates. My older two kids are pushing Warren and one of my middle child's best friends has already maxed out for the primaries for Warren. My daughter's best friend is like another daughter and I am pleased to see that she is so passionate at this stage (she is a lawyer who worked for Neal Katyal's firm) I also like Joe Biden, Beto, Julian Castro, Senators Harris, Warren, Booker and Klobuchar and a couple of other candidates.
I doubt that sanders will ever release his tax returns and let us know who owns Old Towne Media, LLC
I am in no hurry to make my selection. I will support the nominee of the party but there are several strong democrats who can beat trump. sanders is not one of these candidates. I have made some donations now including being a first day donor to Beto (I met him at the National Convention). It will be an interesting primary process.
BTW, Hillary Clinton is not running right now and I doubt that she will change her mind. My middle child and her husband heard Mayor Pete in Austin and like him. I am not convinced yet that Mayor Pete has any accomplishments to justify being POTUS. Time will tell
I am worried that sanders is still trying to divide the party with people like Sirota and attacks on other candidates.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
