Based on what he's said about young adults and the financial/economic problems we face that people of his time didn't and don't, the only thing he'll get Republicans to work together with him on is continuing to hit us even harder.

Joe Biden is delusional and it's sad so many in the democratic party support him.

New frontrunner for dumbest comment of the campaign and will be very hard to beat.

Spectacularly deluded.

More importantly, when the Bernie Bros realise their man isn't going to win, do they stay loyal and let Biden walk to the nomination, or switch to a younger progressive to help with "Anyone but Joe Biden"?
 
I see the lefties here are angry that it turns out the centralist in the Democratic Party are not as powerless as they thought.......

No we're angry because he's delusional and a terrible candidate but people like you support him anyway and are happy it makes the lefties angry.

You're the democratic equivalent of a Trump supporter.

Nobody is the Democratic equivalent of a Trump supporter. You're thinking of Bill Clinton supporters.
 
I'm not a Bernie Bro and I also hope we get a better candidate than Biden. And I'm not convinced he can beat Trump.

We need one of the three top female candidates, all three have proven track records standing up to Trump. I favor Harris even though she has a few issues.

Biden has sadly gone the "I've already won" route and he's unimpressive.

Tell me more about Harris's "proven track record standing up to Trump".

The more I see of Elizabeth Warren, the more she stands out from the field as someone who's thinking the right thoughts and doing the right things.

Not appearing on Fox, saying she's refusing to help them make money, is an excellent statement, and at odds with even Bernie.

It's a shame she has no chance, because she looks the perfect mix of liberal and socialist America could do with a dose of.

I like Warren a lot. But I think that is a big mistake. You take the opportunity to reach EVERY VOTER.

Do you also consider it a big mistake that multiple candidates aren't accepting corporate PAC money?

I do.

Instead of refusing support, candidates opposed to PACs should make a formal agreement that if elected, they would work to undo Citizens United.
 
While on the topic of Biden... I quite don't want him to be the candidate. With that said, it looks like the Biden's Ukraine issue... isn't, according to a Ukrainian politician.

Ukrainian prosecutor manufactured Biden conspiracy to 'curry favor with Trump and Giuliani'

In 2016, then-Vice President Joe Biden went to Ukraine and spoke out against corruption, including calling for the resignation of a particularly notorious prosecutor. According to Giuliani, the reason Biden made this trip was to protect his son Hunter, who was on the board of holding company Burisma, owned by wealthy Ukrainian Mykola Zlochevsky. In the Rudy version, Biden wanted the prosecutor out because he was threatening Zlochevsky, and Zlochevsky was in turn threatening Hunter Biden’s fat board member salary. In reality, the prosecutor was not going after either Zlochevsky or Burisma. In fact, it was the prosecutor’s failure to cooperate with a U.K. case against Zlochevsky that caused Biden to demand his resignation. In other words, Giuliani isn’t just wrong; he has the story completely backwards.

I'm not sure recognizing that citizens are allowed to publish political opinions counts as going "way too far".

Citizens United allows corporations to spend unlimited amounts spreading lies and misinformation at no risk to their public reputation.

It is one of the primary reasons why our notion is so politically polarized. Mudslinging no longer has a downside. Nobody can throw it back at you because your identity is hidden from the public.
