The reason I won't declare on DU is because when Inslee, my primary candidate, lost, I said I'd wait for the public to decide on Super Tuesday and then go with the DNC nominee. I still believe he was the best candidate. I've been pretty much avoiding all poll talk and point scoring on the Primaries and Candidates threads.
I gave the Governor Inslee sell my best effort, early on.
That doesn't mean I must be silent, can't hold opinions, or that I don't have preferences.
I was leaning Biden. Biden will get the black vote -- and we should remember that no Democrat ever wins without the black vote. I still think the country trusts his experience and ability to hit the ground running to reset this government constitutional balance. Warren can get the women's vote for a male nominee, which is the largest out-group in the country, and no small number.
I want a Biden/Warren ticket.
There are other winning combinations, but the way I see it, this one is best for our best Democratic Party governance, and for eventually removing the corporate capture this government suffers from.
I do intend to be a full donor to Warren if she wins just ONE primary ahead, because I want her, at the least, picked for VP, so she can be in the room for all big decisions, and learn what Biden knows.
I do believe she's the smartest, has the best voting record, and has done the most for real practical help to Americans with her Consumer Protection Bureau.
Thanks for asking.
