The candidate that wins the most delgates, even if a plurality, should be on the ticket. [View all]

That does not mean he/she should be at the top of the ticket.

Unless they win the number needed outright.

But, if there is a brokered convention, then the person that can negotiate a majority should be at the top of the ticket and the candidate with the initial plurality should be the VP nominee, in my opinion.

I think that is a fair and democratic way to handle it.

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