(27,398 posts)I can get behind almost all of the declared and undeclared candidates. There's a few with whom I'm not familiar. But most of them are pushing positions and initiatives I can get behind. I may not agree 100% with their positions, and some may not support every position I support. But for the most part they're in my ballpark.
But I have to see how well they articulate their positions, whether they can sell it to the American people, if they're inspirational and passionate. Do they get get buried in the weeds and lose their point. Are they forceful without being confrontational. I want a winner. There are at least 6 I can willingly get behind if they show me they have the stuff to be a fighter, a champion, a communicator. Maybe the others I don't know as well will surprise me and become my front runner.
Bernie (78 in September) Joe Biden (77 in November). As I senior, I think they're both too old. We need younger but experienced candidates.
That's why I'm undecided.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
