But the party of diversity would be running an old white man against a party where 2 of the 3 top candidates are Latino ?
But I think you’re right, Biden never won a primary and blurs the line between a candidate and a man feeding pigeons in the park while mumbling to himself.
Sanders would win MA, VT NY & CA I bet. Probably CT & RI too.
I was talking with someone today who thinks Bam might pressure the FBI to indict her as his parting gift to the Clintons, Liz Warren and Biden would jump in the race and the GOP will STILL find a way to lose.
From talking to the average uninformed voter in Upstate NY I have noticed some strange things about this election. No one likes Hilary. Even the hardcore democrats don’t want to vote for her.
This is the election result (for NY electorate) I get from up here.
Sanders vs anyone = Sanders
Hillary vs Trump = Trump
Hillary vs other Republicans = Hillary
The most interesting part is given a Hillary vs Trump race, I could see a scenario where Trump flips the map and take a chunk of the northeast.
Sanders will never be allowed to win the democratic nomination. No one that looks like Sanders would ever win the Presidency in the media age. One can argue how many states he’d win but it matters not. He would lose and lose big. But I’ve shared those thoughts with others several times and won’t go into it again. Suffice it to say that the typical uninformed voter who starts paying attention about 30-60 days out and chooses looks over substance is not voting for Sanders. As I said the DNC would never allow Sanders to carry their banner into the national race. They will be dusting off old Joe Biden for certain. He is their go to guy right now
As a side note while I have been saying for months that Hillary will never become President I have no idea why Obama would want her indicted unless he has great faith in Joe Biden winning. Obama does not want his legacy “Obama Care” gutted and his many other left wing wacko programs touched by a republican President.
I have no idea if the gaffe machine Joe Biden has enough left in the tank to carry off a win in a national election. He tried twice before and was soundly defeated as he couldn’t even get his parties nomination in 1988 and 2008. No one knows for sure but I would bet that any of the republicans could beat Biden.
The important thing is this, as I have been saying, Hillary Clinton is NOT going to become President of the United States.
Obama wants to preserve the notion of him being the best Democratic President ever, at least as much of it as he can. He is already riding the Clinton coattails, as seen by him pulling out Bill to help in 2012 when it looked like he was struggling electorally. I’m sure that this came with the proviso that Bam would support Hillary in 2016, should Obama go back on that, Hillary has plenty of dirt on him and his administration to make things ugly as hell.
In fact, when Hillary stopped at the Mt. St. Helen’s volcano on a campaign trip, she was overheard as she leaned into the lava-filled crater screaming “I thought we had a DEAL!”
Normally I don’t bother with the political section of this website because there are a lot of nuts, but I am very thankful he is winning. I also think the polls that show Hillary with a large percentage of voters are lies. I cant prove it but I don’t know a single person who supports her. I want to see their data sources.

Do you want Bernie to win the nomination because you want a republican to win the White House, or do you want Bernie to win because you are wet behind the ears naïve kid who actually buys into the lie of socialism?
The word in Washington is that Bernie is keenly aware he has no shot at being president or even winning the nomination. He’s happy to be the guy that pushes/scares Hillary further to the left during the primary process.
I’m not a Washington insider by a long shot but have a few friends who work in the biz.
I’ll need to ask about Biden. I think many of you are underestimating Hillary.
You said that with Obama 4 years ago I think and look what happened.
Hillary is far from a lock but to dismiss her is pretty myopic. Especially when the republican process is far from decided. I know republican power brokers sure as shit aren’t going to be dismissing Hillary if (when) she wins the nomination.
