Democratic Primaries

Unless Bernie is his VP and that's probably not going to happen any more than Joe adopting a Medicare For All platform. While I'm even more left on socialized health/medical I also feel that realistically it's probably not happening at this time (although COVID-19 'might' change some hearts and minds) and would be quite happy just to get the ACA pulled back together, strengthened and improved on 'for now'.

Anyway, I think some more Bernie supporters might be won over if Joe goes with a minority and/or someone they perceive as more liberal. I think most Bernie supporters have already started to (in their minds at least) or will switch after the convention. Of course there will be those that sit out after that or switch to whichever 'left' spoiler runs. IME those types probably won't be won over (and we'd lose too many others if we were to try).

The thing is we can't realistically please everyone. What we 'can' and need to do is 'please' enough to get Trump out of power and put in someone who is not only sane and capable but is smart and yet humble enough to set aside their own ego and surround themselves with honest to goodness sane and highly capable and experienced people.
