I have a confession to make. I wasnt sure Hillary Clinton would beat Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
Sure, I supported Clinton, wanted her to be our president and cried for about three days in the fetal position when she lost but I wasnt entirely shocked that Trump won.
For years I have seen my own Democratic Party support very intelligent candidates who seem a bit too highbrow for mainstream America.
John Kerry was a very eloquent, intelligent and polished speaker who I felt wiped the floor with George W. Bush in all three of their presidential candidate debates.
I also believed Hillary Clinton was more professional and had more political knowledge and intellect than Trump, and I concluded as polls reported most people felt that she won each presidential candidate debate hands down.
But the American people in both of those elections seemed to feel more comfortable voting for a guy theyd like to have a beer with. That was one of the reasons explaining the success of Bill Clinton a Rhodes scholar who played the saxophone and spoke with an Arkansas twang.
Bill Clinton was likeable. For many voters, Trump was as well.
As a Democrat, I not only want a good strong candidate to run against President Trump. I want someone wholl win. That someone, in my opinion, is former Vice President Joe Biden.

And some think that white working class guys will see that perversion as just Joe being a man’s man - and will vote for him anyway.
Maybe. I think Corey Booker has a better appeal. Sort of like Obama II. My money's on him for Democrat nominee in 2020.
He'll still lose to Trump. Or Pence.
1) Biden will be buried by 2nd Amendment voters for his YES vote in the Senate for Clinton 1994 gun control omnibus bill.bill.
2) Biden will be buried by US jobs 1st voters for his YES vote in the Senate for Clinton 1993 NAFTA bill.
“They need a throwaway for 2020.”
Biden will be 77 in 2020. Anyone voting for Biden at the top of the ticket should look very closely at the Democrat VP candidate. Likely, should the ticket win, the VP will become POTUS during the first term.
If they run an old white male at the top of the ticket, they will need a VP candidate to appeal balance the ticket and appeal to key constituencies - people of color, millenials, and females. Kamala Harris anyone?
AND.......Pass the bong my way again.
Lmao!!!!
Do you think there is a chance another run would kill her.....Hummmmmmm!!!
Biden and Kerry are too highbrow for us? ha ha ha Biden has never had a job, that makes him too highbrow for me? Kerry has been nothing but a gigolo and a traitor
This woman does indeed have bugs for brains. Or maybe oatmeal. I read the entire excerpt, but did not go to the link and read the rest of her delusional drivel.
She reeks of smug leftist superiority. We are all ungrateful drooling knuckle draggers who are just lucky to have her ilk here to do our thinking for us.
What a putrid snob.
We just had Creepy Uncle Joe stumping for Mexico Joe here in Indiana today.
Perhaps he's looking for some VEEP material here.
Gropey D Hairplugs? lol.. bring it!
The Groper
I can’t tell for sure.
I suspect maybe the writer is working for our side and encouraging the Democrats to continue making stupid mistakes. I am certainly not going to argue with this. I say, go for it Dems. We’d love to see Trump running against Slow Joe. Especially after a damaging primary fight with Hillary.
I don’t think Slow Joe could run for President because he “Peter Principled” out at Vice President. Maybe he could run again as Vice President with a real sickly candidate for President who would not live more than a week or so after the election and he would rise to President by default.
Really, brain dead Biden? The man hasbeen said so many totally stupid things I am surprised he knows his own name.
Run, creepy Uncle Joe, run! And the same goes for any female between the ages of 1 - 100 if Biden is in the room!
Dear Leslie.
From what we learned about the CNN debate cheating conspiracy, we thus have reasonable suspicion that Ms. Clinton knew the questions in advance for most debates, if not actually writing them. By "professional" do you mean scheming, cheating, and lying?: and, by political knowledge, do you mean Alinsky acolyte?
And, Joe Biden? Seriously?
Well, to his credit, he is sometimes lucid.
Errrrm....”raising my hand” - he’s a straight white male!!!
Are they gagging at the same time?????!?!!!?!?
This is their problem - why on earth would a straight white male vote D in 2018?!? You’d have to hate yourself first.
...on top of that...they have to know....he’s “CREEPY JOE”!!!
LOL
Leslie Marshall always has been, and always will be, a batsh!t crazy PROG/LIB/FEMANAZI idiot.
