Warren is mishandling fundraising and is suffering for it
Gabbard's policy on Syria and refugees crossed a redline for us
Booker is advocating for a reparations study
Harris has never run a competitive race against a Republican
Biden is too old in my opinion, and won't present a significant enough change
Gillibrand has never stood out a candidate with a solid message

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