Biden got more votes in primaries than all the other candidates combined. That's kind of how popularity works.
People on the internet like to pretend that US has more progressives than it has, but all the statistics show that even the most popular progressive candidate can't get enough support to win primaries, so chances of him winning the general election were even more slim.
Unless that will change, best we can hope for is a competent centrist.
I've heard the "progressives" going on and on since high school. According to them the entire nation is a powder keg primed to blow up into glorious revolution any day now. Any day now...
I mean, they might be right but not for the reason they think and definitely not by the people we hope. "It could happen here" and all that
