I pointed out why Pete was wrong.

And it's probably why I don't want him to be the nominee because he'll fail, too, by chasing this idea Democrats can win back white voters - voters who haven't been members of the party, at least at the presidential level, since the 1960s.

The focus has to be on younger voters and minority voters. Had turnout among minority voters been at the level they were in 2012 in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Hillary wins.

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