34. What a ridiculous question

Mon Oct 28, 2019, 03:30 PM

Oct 2019

Just like when some Democrats pushed Pelosi (successfully) into making that pledge.

Circumstances on the ground will dictate that decision. I wouldn't want Biden to be elected hamstrung by such a pledge. He may decide to only serve one term but that shouldn't be revealed until it's time.

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