In reply to the discussion: Biden continues to hold solid lead in every poll, everywhere: post accusations [View all]shanny
(6,709 posts)I have made no secret of what I want in a candidate: someone willing to take on the entrenched powers that be AND--even more important--someone who is full-bore on climate change. So far the top contenders are Bernie, Warren and Inslee, and maybe Buttigieg, although I don't know much about him yet. He is wicked smart but still accessible, he has a way of framing the issues that is very relatable and yet outside the box...I need more information there.
I have also made it very clear what I don't want: someone Wall St. likes, someone big donors want, someone who is trying to return to pre-tRump days, as if that was such a good time for most of us anyway.
Should be pretty clear why I don't want Biden, however likeable he is and however good a job he did as veep. The past was prologue to what we have now, and that is what we need to address.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
