I thought greasy characters were a joke in america so how are Trump and Biden so popular?
Biden’s not. You’re about to find that out.
so i found out his dad was actually a used car salesman for a while. no wonder that vibe emanates so strongly from sloppy joe.
also, this article makes him sound like a complete idiot.

James B. Comey, then the F.B.I. director, described the dynamic in his memoir: “President Obama would have a series of exchanges heading a conversation very clearly and crisply in Direction A. Then, at some point, Biden would jump in with, ‘Can I ask something, Mr. President?’”
“Obama would politely agree,” Mr. Comey continued, “but something in his expression suggested he knew full well that for the next five or 10 minutes we would all be heading in Direction Z. After listening and patiently waiting, President Obama would then bring the conversation back on course.”

Already attacking Biden? Because Bernie the old coot knows he cannot compete?
If the Dems want to beat this mother effer Trump, out of his stolen seat, WE NEED TO UNITE AND NOT TEAR EACH OTHER DOWN.
Kick Bernie out now. He will kill this again if we let him. He is the Dem version of Trump. Sickening.
Amen. Everyone and their mother will vote for Trump if Bernie is the nominee.
Prioritizing things over voters’ lives seems like a great way to lose again.
The DNC and Obama-Clinton cheated Bernie our of the nomination and Bernie is the problem?!? I think you have reversed the situation.
Bernie should run in the ticket of the Green Party.
Bernie should do whatever he can to fix the country. Given that he’s caucused with the Democrats and raised money for them, he should feel zero shame in seeking the Democratic Party nomination, even if it’s a problem for some Democrats,
Serious question: what makes you think he can fix anything? The guy is 75 or so, and I can't recall one single thing he has fixed in his whole career -- can you?

I'm afraid I agree with this, which means Bernie is the most likely candidate.
Maybe then he'd select a centrist VP, like Booker or Harris?
I don't think it will Bernie, too many people don't like him. If Biden fades, the anti-Sanders vote will coalesce around someone else, probably Harris, but could be Buttigieg.

(Yes, I would still vote for him because he is slightly better than Individual 1.) It would just suck to Bernie when we have so many other really good options that can do so many much needed things with our country.
And, Biden seems to be against the legalization of pot, which is a HUGE negative for me. I know we need to be Individual 1, and Biden offers a good chance, but we also need some changes to be made. I’m not excited about the prospect of the same old tired dudes promoting the same old tired policies.
Buttigieg, Beto, Warren, Harris, Klobuchar... any of these folks, please!
