I’m sure as I’ve ever been on Joe Biden.

I don't get any undecided at this point. Bernie isn’t going to win the nomination.
So what.. Joe or Trump?

So if you or youth or old people don’t vote blue, that’s how we lose. So yeah, get behind Joe because it’s the right and only thing. If we do lose it will be those undecided because I know 51% of he rest of us will.

You keep saying you read posts here saying we don’t want such and such votes. No one has said that. We say vote blue. If anyone has to question it then it’s just dumb and the way we do lose.

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