    Yeah that’s fair. I just wish they had gotten off their arses and initiated a democratic vote on the matter.

      For that to happen it would need to have been in March at the latest. Biden did the right thing, but he waited quite a long time to do it. At this point, support needs to coalesce around one candidate.

      Not that I disagree. I absolutely don’t. It’s just too late for processes like that at this point.

        Not really; you’ve got over three months.

          I mean, yes, and in those three months will be the democratic vote to actually nominate the candidate. I don’t see any value in having another vote before then.
