The base of the GOP are now ignorant people of a certain color that I cant use the word for without drawing MASSIVE unwanted attention who HATE anyone who are not also that color.

But, as you ask, are there enough semi decent people in the GOP to turn the tide, I doubt it but maybe.

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

If Bernie wins our nomination, I will predict Schultz and Bloomberg both jump in Celerity Apr 2019 #25

Bloomberg may end up winning BlueFlorida Apr 2019 #26

They will do what they will do. If Liz or Pete win what's to stop them from doing the same? Autumn Apr 2019 #29

Just one joint appearance is not enough in my book BlueFlorida Apr 2019 #42

I have discovered that for some nothing Bernie will ever do is enough. A hundred joint Autumn Apr 2019 #43
