You can base it your what you think they want, but they may not know what they want themselves. You can base it on the assumption that moderates are better, familiar is better, gender or race matters, etc., but these are just assumptions.

So saying you just want someone who can win gets you nowhere. Instead ask what a winning candidate looks like, and who best fits that.

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