(28,702 posts)i also think that the candidates will ideally present their true agendas, defend them, and either win or lose based on those policies. i don't want any spin, deflection, sidestepping, pandering. show me who you are, tell me what you stand for. Warren has been at the top of my list for awhile now because in my estimation that is what she does.
i will vote for the democrat. period. until who that is has been decided i will vote for the candidate who comes closest to fulfilling what i want in my candidate.
Also: i have a friend who would love to see a woman president but is convinced that the country will never elect one. phooey! who thought we'd have a black president in this lifetime (not me). If we vote for her she'll win!
it's early days. i believe that Biden is leading the polls because of name recognition. As more and more people get familiar with the others, the numbers will change. The debates will make a big difference in the polls. we'll see what happens.
ETA: that teacher is no centrist. he's misrepresenting himself to you. he's a republican.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
