Those others. And they are going to have a huge impact.

Yes, of course anyone who wins the primary will have a problem. But last time around, Russia started meddling by spreading Putin's stolen wealth around to different primary candidates. Putin didn't wait for the general election to start meddling. He's doing it now.

But you know, the FBI can't t act to protect the country from foreign influence thanks to the Roberts Court, Traitor Trump administration, the broken voting system that the GOP set up and American capitalist kings who are busily stealing vast amounts of our national wealth.

Then also they have their fingers in the GOP, every media from radio to Twitter to facebook to TV. And they have traitors in campaigns feeding them info.

This election won't be what everyone thinks. This election will be fully Putin vs the American people. Right now all the power structure is aligned to give Putin the win. But maybe the American people will wake up and act.....maybe.

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

Highlight:

Biden will be the nominee [View all] evertonfc Sep 2019 OP

I think you are right, but... UncleTomsEvilBrother Sep 2019 #1

I heard that at a party meeting a month or so ago. redstatebluegirl Sep 2019 #4

He would be a great choice...hadn't thought of him. Demsrule86 Sep 2019 #64

wow that would be great too! samnsara Sep 2019 #6

Oooh, hadn't heard that possibility! That would be good as well. nt woodsprite Sep 2019 #31

Eric holder would be great... I really like Susan Rice as well. Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #114

Eric Holder crazytown Sep 2019 #63

Yep. Not to mention "Fast and Furious"... let's just hand the election to Trump. SMC22307 Sep 2019 #84

I think it will be Warren as the nominee. vsrazdem Sep 2019 #2

She has to show she can win the rust belt. Right now she's tied with Trump-Biden is up 9 redstateblues Sep 2019 #58

No, it won't. She isn't winning the AA community and should they move it will be for Demsrule86 Sep 2019 #65

Let's wait til we get a few primaries under our belt iwannaknow Sep 2019 #69

Probably just wishful thinking. vsrazdem Sep 2019 #70

I don't think declaring she'll shut down Facebook is going to help her politically. ElementaryPenguin Sep 2019 #123

Perhaps Sherman A1 Sep 2019 #3

i dont think he will pick Stacey..and Im not sure he will pick Warren either.. samnsara Sep 2019 #5

Why don't you think he'll pick Stacey Abrams? highplainsdem Sep 2019 #8

I don't either. Stacey was a member of GA's house, Hortensis Sep 2019 #36

My guess is that Biden will pick a guy like Bullock Merlot Sep 2019 #77

I doubt it. He has too many good possibilities who won't disappoint. Hortensis Sep 2019 #85

With GA having 2 senate seats open i say Stacy should run for one of them onetexan Sep 2019 #102

This... Stacy has a very bright future. She should continue to seek higher office. If not in GA Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #115

She wants to be Governor. She doesn't want Senate. Funtatlaguy Sep 2019 #117

Agree re: Abrams. She shld run for senate. VEEP pick shld be Beto. onetexan Sep 2019 #105

Oh i don't think Harris is off the table at all. MontanaFarmer Sep 2019 #27

I like the concept of Biden/Harris ticket Gothmog Sep 2019 #87

I used to like it - until she attacked him. ElementaryPenguin Sep 2019 #122

I really like Amy, as well. My money for a Biden running mate is still Susan Rice, however. WheelWalker Sep 2019 #34

Picking Rice instantly tosses the Benghazi stinkbomb out into the arena Celerity Sep 2019 #90

Like you, I once dreamed of a Biden/Harris ticket, and like you, I don't really want that anymore. Tarheel_Dem Sep 2019 #60

I wouldn't pick Warren...we lose Senate seat potentially and what does she bring geographically in Demsrule86 Sep 2019 #66

Biden/Beto would help win TX onetexan Sep 2019 #103

I like that combination but can Beto win Texas? Demsrule86 Sep 2019 #119

The polls are showing Beto doing well in Tx and he's very popular here onetexan Sep 2019 #120

I agree. I'm betting Biden/Beto will end up being the ticket. ElementaryPenguin Sep 2019 #121

If Joe, Bernie, or Elizabeth is the nominee dflprincess Sep 2019 #99

I do not agree. It's way too early to determine who the nominee will be. The primary Ninga Sep 2019 #7
