full scale tear it all up by the roots revolution. I think looking at the debacle on the right should have taught everyone a lesson. We do not need radical reactionary change for its sake.

Our Revolution and Bernie-backed candidates. They resoundingly embraced moderate candidates. Ones who will actually DO things rather than ones who just talk loudly about doing things.

So, Joe is provably correct.

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

since the 1970s. Would have loved Bernie back then, getting much warmer feelings about him the longer this process goes on.

a full scale cleaning of the government, top to bottom, with bleach. Accountability must be addressed.

I'm in this for Pete. I know Pete won't win. But he should stay in, using his voice to offer real alternatives, until after Super Tuesday, when so many other states should at least have a say in narrowing the field down to two. My state, Pennsylvania, won't vote until April, and won't get a chance to have a say in picking the nominee.

Then, after Super Tuesday, Pete can come out in support of Biden.

Then I will be 100% behind Biden, for the win at the top, and all down the ballot. Supporting Pete, I didn't want either Biden or Sanders. But between Biden and Sanders, Biden is an easy 2nd choice.

Biden has said that LGBTQ concerns will be of primary importance in his administration. Considering that, I think Pete would be a GREAT VP candidate.

That would give America 4 to 8 years to acclimate to an incredibly intelligent, articulate, empathetic VP, AND a gay in a top political office, which should allow an easy transition to President, after Biden.

Or Biden could go with Stacy Abrams. She has similar talents as Pete. That should wrap up the AA vote.

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