For all the negatives that one could toss out regarding Robert Byrd, and there are many, I honestly don’t think he’d intentionally put his people and his country in jeopardy. His concept of what is or isn’t an objective “good” for the country is a very big problem, but I don’t doubt that that’s what he’d try to do. That’s what it’s come down to ... who actually gives even half a damn about this country in any way, shape or form.
Can’t say that about many Dems these days. Byrd’s about as old-school of a (D)as you’ll find above ground anymore.
He’s less of an idiot than Biden, but his health is in serious decline. He’d be a placeholder at best, for whomever the (D) establishment determines.
Hillary, probably.
The left will finally find something objectionable about Byrd’s past Klan involvement, though. Can you imagine the uproar, removing a putative black man from the Presidency, and replacing him with a former Klansman?
That adds a whole ‘nother level of rage to the inevitable riots.
No doubt... As it is there would be riots even if JUST Obama was removed from office. If Byrd were to assume the office I think “riots” would be a mild term for the consequences.
Byrd loves America and Americans. He could never be worse than Obama. But he made that remark and it will never be forgotten. And I think not fair to black Americans that he stayed in office.
Besides too old.Sometimes you can barely hear him. Maybe that is a good thing.
I don’t give a Sheet.
