Restoration over revolution

In my opinion, the voters are voting against Donald Trump and the Republicans moreso than they are voting for Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders. Voters want to restore some sort of normalcy and decency to our country.

In my opinion, the voters like Bernie but this is not a time they can gamble with "revolution". It does not mean that they are in love with Joe Biden. They support Joe Biden because he is the best hope to get our country back on the right track.

Just my opinion.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

...I would love to vote for someone like Warren or Sanders. We need to get back to a baseline, and then we can go forward. This ship is so far astray, we need to establish normalcy more than anything.

And Evolution, Not Revolution.

What we DON’T need is more upheaval when we’re already trying to survive what trump has created! Seems to me small steps and incremental changes are what’s needed so as to avoid another big shock to the system.

I don’t think America can withstand much more upheaval.

instead of all backward. We should be able to make things better for everyone while returning to sanity.

Thanks for always being kind and decent Kentuck.
