The scenario I like, which may be unlikely, but possible, is Joe Biden expiring of natural causes in May. That would give everyone a face full of Kamala Harris as President and allow for an "open" convention that could select someone other than Harris. Rejecting Harris would be difficult but retaining her would be fatal.

Good post.
Those of us who were young during the 1968 Dem. National convention remember the verbal and physical fighting leading up to and then after the protests led Lyndon B. Johnson to surprisingly declare on TV one night that he would not seek his own party’s nomination for another term.

Big fighting among Eugene McCarthy, Eldridge Cleaver, Robert F. Kennedy and Humbert Humphrey factions and the “the whole world is watching” riots, black protests and riots and frequent bloodshed in cities plus the death of RFK and Martin Luther King.

What a time.
