There were several good candidates in the field that yr but noooooo.. Fritzy was the VP & if he wanted 2 run 4 Prez, well dagnabbit, he was gonna run 4 Prez! I thought we're screwed. Even with Geraldine Ferraro making her historic run as the 1st VP candidate. Like my Mama said, honey nobody votes 4 the VP.
I just hope Uncle Joe don't f things up this time around. Or that the DNC don't cheat 2 get him nominated
FWIW, I don't see him making the cut, though he will act like a snowplow and push a few of the less suitable bidders off the road. This time, we'll know by Xmas who is viable. If may be a few more than typical for the Dems, but it won't be the circus the GOP had in 2016. I see Kamala Harris still in the running, and one of the youngish candidates -- probably Beto, Beyond that, it's a coin toss.
Assume winning the general will be the factor that takes out the otherwise decent candidates. More than a few have no shot winning there.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
