In reply to the discussion: Michael McFaul: Biden "would restore American leadership and respect in the world overnight" [View all]Cha
(319,392 posts)69. Democratic Underground is Not a "blog".. it is
a political discussion board. It has lots of input from EW supporters and all the candidates' supporters.. some less than others.

You know the Admins are in charge of this board, right? If you have problem with the way members are posting then you should it up with them.

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
