Tell me in a non-sound bite way how he is helping Trump. He is not runing down Biden in any way, he is daily showing how rediculous Trump and his handling of the Covid-19 issue is, he is simply adding a much need voice to this crisis. If Bernie had 200 delagates more than Biden would you be demanding that Joe drop out? I don't think so. If your chosen candidate is so weak he can't share the moment with anyone, then you need to take stock.

At this critical time we need all the rational voices to speak out and that includes Senator Sanders. He is hurting no one by staying in so that he has a forum that allows him to reach a bigger audience in a crisis that gives support to one of his major issues, Health Care for All.

I don't mean this as any criticism of VP Biden, but if you want to take it that way to justify an alert on me, go right ahead.

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