Sad. He is such a nice guy and I had hope that he would see the light and take on some of Sanders’ and Warren’s ideas and get more current. The lunch bucket people he wanted to help have been struck so low that they actually voted for Trump in desperation. He does have a comforting fatherly persona that inspires.

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