Well the Joe Biden gambit likely won't happen. I believe that was the plan last year when Biden decided not to run. The Dem establishment figured that he could be slipped onto the ticket should Crooked Hillary get indicted or otherwise drop out of the race. Add Fauxahontas and you had the near perfect ticket: A sitting vice president and a biological female.

But Bernie Sanders threw a monkey wrench into things. He was supposed to have been dispatched weeks ago making Crooked Hillary the presumptive nominee. However, not only is he still hanging around but he has enough won delegates to make the case that he should be the nominee should Crooked Hillary be forced from the race.

It would be very difficult, if not impossible, for the Democrats to justify handing Biden the nomination when Bernie has nearly 2,000 delegates, millions of actual votes and a ton of states won, including most of the final contests.

Now this puts the Dems in quite a pickle. They don't want Bernie as nominee any more than the establishment GOP wanted Donald Trump. But they are likely to be stuck with him should the Wicked One get forced from the race.

Do you realize that if you take Hillary’s superdelegates away, she is almost even with Bernie? When California rolls around he could pull ahead when Hillary does not have her superdelegates. This is a huge fraud and a big, big problem.
