19. I was a Warren supporter, but now I'm all in for Biden.

I actually support quite a lot of Bernie’s ideas, but at this moment our most important task is to get rid of Dirty Donnie, and I simply believe that Biden has a better chance of doing that. I do hope he chooses a more progressive woman as VP, but in reality Biden (or Sanders) will have a huge amount of work just undoing all of Trump’s nasty policies. It may take a couple of years ro get back to normal. The likelihood, though, given the ages of Biden and Sanders, is that either would serve only one term. Whoever is the nominee needs to choose wisely to set up the VP as the next president.

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

I agree. We need normalcy before we can go forward. So much repair to be done at this point. northoftheborder Mar 2020 #1
