Maybe now, Bernie will see what a farce it is to still even require these primaries at all. Every election can be postponed till next year but the presidential, according to Article Two, but since this can't, let this impose upon Bernie what, perhaps, he needs to feel to realize that he's not going to win and staying in is simply going to cost lives. I'm not saying down-ballot elections aren't important, but I think they can wait till this virus is more controlled. To do that with the presidential, which I'd support in spite of Trump, we'd need an amendment.

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

He might see that. He wouldn't endorse endangering people just because he wants delegates. ancianita Apr 2020 #12

You think he wouldn't? nolawarlock Apr 2020 #13
