I agree with you.
Bern as veep, announced at the convention, I think makes him the nominee if president ValJar wants an indictment thereafter, right?
Of course.
Though The Biden Solution for Dems is probably their best political "compromise," the DNC's problem was in waiting too long to implement Uncle Joe. I still believe he'd be even more defenseless and look just as stupid going up against the salvos of Trump.
Since both The Hag Camp and Commie Camp are spiteful, petty, and maniacal, I don't see their respective machines all that much helpful to Biden. Ironically, BOTH will feel he stole the nomination from Hillary AND Bernie.
My friend, you're grossly underestimating the "rancor" and animus between Hillary and Bernie's supporters. These people plat dirty and hold grudges that make the #NeverTrump people beef look like playful spat.
The DNC has an irreparable problem on their hands. If they insert Biden and Warren, THEY will be resented as having hijacked the nom from both The Hag and The Bern.
It is a matter of who gets to define the words in the lexicon, so to speak. Conservative now means Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and most of the writers at National Review. We who see ourselves simply as Conservatives are now Right-Wing Extremists.
They did it with the whole Red State/ Blue State thing: Historically, red was the color of communism, better dead than red, etc. Blue was the color of conservatives, although not in any official way. But the election reports drew Democrat states in blue, Republican states in red, and started refering to them by that designation. It's very subtle, almost to the point of being a conspiracy theory, which we all know that conspiracy theorists are nutcases. But who doesn't think that the ad agencies and political consultants were working on this stuff well in advance?
“...Red State/Blue State thing ...”
I had noticed that about the colors as well and was disturbed by it. I wish the leadership at the time hadn’t allowed it to happen.
I wish the leadership at the time hadnt allowed it to happen.....The ‘leadership’ Dems and Pubs MADE it happen, not allowed it.
