Because people continue to bandwagon winners instead of actually voting for good candidates.

Modern politics has boiled down to campaigning being the only important factor.

And it doesnt get better as long as people buy that system.

When was the last time we had a good candidate? I'm guessing our ideas of "good" are different.

Yeah, it’ll be interesting to see if it works.

Biden was the loveable, cooky uncle as VP. Let’s see if he can get back to that.

He was the loveable kooky uncle to the left. I'm not sure he played that way to independents. I'm certain he didn't play that way to the right. It's the independents he'll need to win over.

If he gets the Obama-Trump voters to come back he will win.

As we’ve seen in the primaries so far, a lot of Bernie’s votes in 2016 were purely anti-Hillary votes. If those folks turn into anti-Trump votes, Biden will win.

Same is true of Obama letting Biden handle Ukraine. If you don't see the conflict of interest, it's because you don't care that there was one. Another one of those situations where it works both ways. There are no innocent people in politics.

The difference here is that the hatchet that Biden swung at Ukraine was openly supported by Republicans and Democrats alike. Was there a conflict of interest, yes - but the two situations were not alike.

No, that is you. You obviously can't tell the difference between a gaff and a lie.

I am calling them all lies. I have no problem calling out Trump for his daily bs. There is a reason I am a never Trumper.

I asked for your definition, and have yet to be given one.

I guess we'll see. I don't see anything as a given. But I think he gives the Dems their best shot at winning.

Exhibit A of someone who doesn't care that there was a conflict of interest.

What was the conflict? Just being related doesn't screams some giant conspiracy. Even if Biden wasn't on point, some other Obama person would be, and that too would be some conspiracy once it was learned whoever it was, tweet anything positive about Joe.

I really want to know how you are connecting dots?

I'm guessing all of that commentary came from Obama helping Sanders in his Senate re-election.

It'd be pretty hilarious if Obama, in the wake of this ad - endorsed Joe.

A gaff is misspeaking, being wrong on facts or figures. A lie is trying to get someone to believe an untruth.

Bloomberg blew through a half a billion dollars. He could have paid for a lot of late term abortions with that money

Candidate? Probably every election.

One that won a nomination it's been a long time.

It's actually something I have been trying figure out. Which presidents would I have voted for in the past based on what they did.

It's certainly not because of the tax cuts. If anything the economy now is more fragile now that it was 2016.

a virus scare from a 3rd world country that is responsible for 90% of our goods can cause fragility in the market.

Tax cuts do work because more companies use that money to hire people, buy produ3and reinvest in that company. Economics 100

They are politicians they are trying to constantly get people to believe their bs.

Biden was stumping on gun control when he said 150million. That is very much in favor of his argument.

A gaffe would be him mistakenly saying something that hurt his cause.

In the same argument it would be him saying only 150 died over 10 years. That's a gaffe to me. Being mistaken in a way that pushes your argument is a lie.

His arrest visiting Mandela was pushing his race relations and positively effects him in the eyes of those who buy it
