17. During the time that Trump took in the $100 million, our top five candidates in a 24 candidate field

took in $97 million. Many democrats don't donate during party primaries. Trump's early money does not scare me, we will be able to match and exceed his money once all our guns are turned on him. What I am more concerned about is us picking a nominee that has a clear message and who will campaign everywhere and live on the campaign trail if needed.

Trump loves adoring crowds, so we know that he will be on the campaign trail and ignoring his day job. If our candidate takes stretches of days off the campaign trail, Trump and his thugs are going to paint that person as possibly ill with a medical condition, just like they did Hillary, with success, IMO.

On edit. We also can't have someone like Bernie in 2016 causing our presumptive nominee to burn funds that could have been directed toward the General.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
