How would any of us know who's going to step up when none of the potential candidates want to come out and undermine Biden's campaign by saying they want to replace him? Even if they don't believe in Biden, they're going to back the current party pick because they too need the party support should they wind up running. This should be obvious.

We can do it now or wait until November and roll the dice, but current polling isn't looking good for Biden. If the party doesn't do anything and he does lose, there better be a fucking retribution because this will be the second time they've handed a victory over to Trump by forcing terrible candidates upon us.

They are saying your prediction is bad because you couldn't even follow your own logic to an actual real persons name.

I listed two people who I would like to see secure the nomination. As I said in my previous comment, any potential replacement is going to keep their mouth shut until Biden steps down otherwise they're undermining his campaign (should he not step down) and pissing the party leadership off. Do you think it's logical for a high ranking Dem to shout on the news that they're going to step in this late in the game while the presumptive nominee is still in the race?
