I think she's specifically trying to position herself for the Biden VP slot based on last night. Good luck trying to cozy up to Sanders or Warren.

If he gets it I'm not gonna bother to vote lol

I'm a very lazy person. I need to be at least a little enthusiastic if I'm gonna go stand in line for 20 minutes.

Plus I'm betting NC is red in 2020 regardless. There are realistically only a few states actually in play.

Basically yeah. Biden vs whoever is basically Obama/Clinton/Kerry/Clinton over again over again over again over again. Just shoot me in the head if it's that or Donald Trump.

Mindfulness, could you give me a list of reasons why you would like Biden to be the next president?

Ironically I think it's Trump that is giving progressives the confidence this time around cause he worked a populist message the last time and it worked for him

And obviously Bernie basically laid out the blueprint for a progressive campaign in 2016 and the rest of the party is basically playing catch up at this point

Think about the fact that the public option was considered radical when Obama was prez and in fact he sacrificed it to get the ACA passed. Now the public option is apparently the centrist position.

The pendulum can swing back though if either a) the Dems nominate a progressive and lose the election or b) they win and then have a disastrous presidency like Trump is having. That's something to keep in mind as well: yes, he won. He can't get virtually anything actually done that isn't status quo Republican **** though.

As it would have it, Biden has the same exact list on his website.
