the same effect as it has before...a small white state that does not reflect our diversity as a party... times change and also it is an undemocratic caucus...doesn't even give a representation of the state. Also Biden doesn't need to prove electability unlike lesser known candidates...he has been elected to the Senate multiple times and won a general election for the presidency as Pres. Obama's VP. I leave you with this interesting fact. Bill Clinton did not win either Iowa nor New Hampshire...

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