Trump regardless of how odious he is will have the power of the Office behind him, not to mention gargantuan money reserves to blow his propaganda and lie machine everywhere. His foreign 'friends' are still in place and have already started their own campaign to discredit and smear.

This election will be a slog not a cakewalk. Which is why we need our nominee to have the widest reach and appeal, a nominee with the greatest ability to snatch the necessary votes in the electoral college to carry us to a win. The bigger the win the better because we know the GOP will do everything in their power to curve the edges in a close election.

That's why my money is on Joe Biden. For the win. For our survival.

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