7. But that would be unfortunate, so let's hope not.

We have some very good, ethical candidates with real records of achievement, and the Sanders' campaign and his surrogates say so many negative things about them and our party that it's in our interest for him to fail and lose the attention of a muck-seeking press as soon as possible.

The Republicans and Russia aren't augmenting and broadcasting his messages for OUR benefit. Or for no reason. We must defeat the massive increasingly fascistic forces determined to take and hold our government. 2016 may have been our last best chance, or 2020. We don't know yet.

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