I was cool towards Warren because I was still salty about Hillary, but I was warming up quick, just not quick enough. My ordinal choice was Kamala Harris, even though it was clear her campaign had little chance. Warren would make an incredible President. I knew as soon as people started making fun of her “plans” and calling her a “policy wonk” that her campaign was in trouble

I mean, of COURSE you have to have introducible, workable “plans” on your platform. What do people think policies are? People did her dirty, because she is smart, forward thinking and thorough and as is well known, or should be, smart women, especially very smart women aren’t always well liked, for that awkward reason of that they are very smart.

Biden, I am fully embracing. He has one hell of a life story, and I adore Jill Biden. He is what we need to start to fix the messes he will inherit, including an incredibly uncertain economy and less than stable world stage.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
