Biden didn’t write this letter. He probably didn’t even read it, maybe it was read to him.

What is now infuriating me is that Biden would have been NOWHERE in 2020 if people like Pete, Liz, and Amy hadn’t agreed to step aside and endorse him on that Super Tuesday. It was orchestrated behind the scenes and inured to his benefit. It could have been any one of them. Now the same kind of orchestrated process needs to happen to get him to step aside in favor of Kamala, and he’s refusing to even collaborate.

Kamala’s name needs to be in this discussion front and center. Because if it’s Biden step down in favor of [blank], that’s not an actual plan. But Biden step down in favor of Kamala, the resistance by Biden can only really be interpreted as him saying he doesn’t have faith Kamala can win. Which means Jill and Hunter don’t have faith Kamala can win. And given all the “Shakespearean” stuff going on behind the scenes, that feels like a personal thing and why isn’t that racism.

I don't think she is ready for President...she is awkward except when debating, and she often comes off as not very serious a lot...I thought when she ran for president she wasn't ready , and I still think that.

Plus, a lot of people don't like her for various reasons, people we need...

I would love to see a woman president, but, it has to be the right on,e, I am never going to vote for a woman just because she is woman ( and/or a woman of color)

I like Val Demings and Amy Klobachar was my choice before they all dropped out in 2020

I am sure there are some more, but, I don't know as much about them
