as a rep. How is it that the Republicans haven't made everyone passionate believers in the need for competence in very high office? Yes, she would be infinitely preferable to Trump, but anyone merely dreadfully inadequate would be.

I voted happily for Stacey for governor because she's a Democrat, and being black and female would have been nice plusses if we could have gotten her elected, but wanting her for president is completely off the table.

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