4. If Joe Biden becomes our Democratic candidate, I will certainly support him

I agree there is no equivalence between Chump's many proven assaults on women and those few allegedly done by our Democratic candidates. Everything you say about Chump is true and has been proven.

However, I take exception to your statement that we shouldn't be discussing this now. Yes we need to discuss it now, because later will be TOO LATE. Now is the time for Democrats to ask questions and state our possible exceptions to any candidate. That's what Democratic Underground is for. I trust the other posters here to listen and consider my position, just as I listen to others.

We don't all agree with one another, and that's OK. But we do listen and we do respect each other's opinions. If I can listen to you and convince you that I have a better idea, well that's great. But if I can't, that's great too. At least we communicated.

I'm a long-time resident of Pennsylvania and I happen to think that Joe Biden would do very well here as the Democratic candidate. He's as middle-of-the-road as Democrats can get, a known quantity, somebody we can sit down and have a beer with. I hope he does get the nomination simply for that reason, but I want to hear what all the candidates have to say before I jump on Biden's wagon.
