Biden Must Remain in this Presidential Race.

The Democrats are panicking for no reason. They’re making themselves look like idiots. As a Democrat, I’m ashamed of their behavior. We’re in a critical Presidential election, and they’re making stupid suggestions.

For example, some Democrats call Biden to bow out of the race.

Huh?! What?!

As of today, Biden is still in the race and vows to remain. I’m glad he’s not caving to pressure. The Democrats want him to step aside but aren’t offering a subtle replacement.

Kamala? She’ll lose for sure.

Hilary? Maybe it would be sweet revenge for her to defeat Trump after he stole the election (with the help of Russia) from her.

Michelle Obama? That would be a dream candidate, but Michelle is set against jumping into politics. Being a First Lady was more than enough for her.

Oprah? Stacey Abrams? Possible candidates. But only Oprah has national and international clout. But what does she know about running a country?

Biden needs to remain in the race. Yes, he’s elderly, moves slowly, might freeze up, and has brain fog, but he is our best hope for keeping democracy alive in America.
