Unfortunately, all of our candidates will probably experience this kind of false smear. We need to learn how to recognize and defuse it quickly.

It looks like we're getting better at it. I don't think many people are buying this one.

One thing puzzles me--why would they have used someone's real name who would almost definitely refute it? Are they hoping to plant doubt in just enough peoples' minds?

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