    No one with a snowball’s chance in hell of winning any primary, even if there were no incumbent. There were no realistic candidates in the primary besides Biden, and he beat all those candidates handily regardless

      I think you’re crazy if you think no one had a chance even if Biden weren’t an incumbent.

      Part of the reason there were so few realistic candidates is because he was the incumbent. Both because of tradition and because of the momentum being an incumbent gives him.

          I’m really annoyed that Marianne Williamson is so… kooky. I’ve so far only seen good policy ideas from her, but I just don’t think she has good judgment based on her beliefs. I don’t need to vote for an atheist, but I can’t get behind her level of magical thinking.
