Her and Buttigieg. She had well thought out plans for everything. She was articulate, passionate, and would have made an incredible President. As much as I respect Clinton, and only in hindsight, I've come to wish she'd been our nominee in 2016.

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