the US government to impact our democratic election.

Howard Dean has said it is best for the DNC not to get involved. What!? Trump and company are
counting on fear and rivalry to prevent a concerted outcry.

How is it promoting Biden to stand up for him against Trump? To say that Trump is targeting him?
He was the VP and a damned good one. He has been a loyal democrat working hard for our
candidates in the past, championing many, mentoring...

It is going out of the way NOT to mention Biden in calling out Trump.

Several candidates have taken a pause in their ambitions to stand up for Biden. Those who have not have been noticeably absent.

The whole Democratic Party ought to be standing up for Biden loudly. Tomorrow Trump will try to
take someone else out of the picture.

All for one and one for all. Biden has been a great friend to Democrats.

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