I believe this too. 2020 Biden did good but there were already questions about his age. It was clear 2024 Biden wasn't going to be able to do it with his age and the headwinds he faced.
MAYBE a primary would have selected a winner if he had chosen not to run from the start and someone had plenty of time to introduce themselves and craft a good message (and not just 100 days).
But with 100 days we needed a well-known personality with the right message. Bernie is obviously extremely well known and speaks to just the right people that Biden and then Kamala were having trouble reaching - working class, young men.
Biden was a milquetoast politician, on the wrong side of decisions, for most of his 50+ year political career.
Sanders has always been more authentic and has consistently platformed his views.
