2. I do like both candidates. I don't like crapping on women once again nor POC.

Nor the fact it would give R's an incredible "leg up" to dump Pence for Niki Haley. How depressing it would be if the R's were the first to elect a woman VP or President.

One can say all they want that we should be color and gender blind on these issues, but to do so now is to overtly affirm that only today's white male candidates have what it takes to be President/Vice President and to acquiesce to that handful of Indies or supposed Obama-->Trump voters that would only vote for a white male, thus letting the "Trump" impact fully take hold.

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