I do not attack other Dem candidates. Attackers need to wake up. All that matters is that we have a candidate that can beat trump and help other Dems win their elections too. The country is not far left. Center left is how we will win. So nothing in Biden's past compares with trump. Foreign leaders begged him to run. He can beat trump. He won't take trump's crap. trump does not want to run against Biden. trump needs Pennsylvania. Biden can win Pennsylvania. He was born and raised in Pennsylvania. Biden has a close relationship with blue collar workers. They will support him because they know how much trump has screwed him. I would love to see a Biden/Harris ticket. We have never had a woman VP. She would then be aligned to be President. Many Americans are way behind when it comes to women leaders.

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