7. It's called reality, candidates. Look into it.

There are maybe six candidates who have any ghost of a chance to win the nomination. All have easily met the criteria for inclusion in the debates. If you have not, random candidate, it is time to begin questioning your decision to run and consider withdrawing.

This will not be a primary season when someone who is unknown rises to the top and floats there to be selected. It simply will not.

So, if you're already not polling above 5%, you never will poll above 5% in this primary season. Think! Plan! Maybe you should run for the Senate, or dig in and do your current job even better. You will not be the Democratic nominee, though.

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