Should Biden do another LBJ? When? (Not If)

[GammaGlobulin]

Warren Buffett is 93.

Yet, Biden now seems OLDER than 93.

Biden seems as if he is 95, or maybe even older.

 

Therefore, given what Biden seems, should Biden do another LBJ?

 

There would be no shame in it, whatsoever.

 

Biden need only see through the glass less darkly what is clear to so many now.

 

LBJ did not shirk from making the right choice, maybe?

 

Should Biden just do another LBJ, and then when?

 

There is no if, it seems.

How could he hope to do another 4 years in the White House?

 

Great video, which reminds me what a true American LBJ turned out to be:

 

 

But, can Biden see the writing on the wall?

 

 

Regards,

Gamma

LBJ? Lady Boy Jaunt? 

He will need bob (tranny) smith to help him with that. 

[Jingthing]

He should withdraw from the nomination.

Yes.

Soon.

Before the convention.

But he should not pass it on to the vice president!

The vp was an affirmative action selection. She has lower approval ratings than Biden. If she runs for president then that will assure a Republican victory.

I think she is qualified to be VP and also president.

Calling her affirmative action is a racist insult.

But I agree there is no point to replace Biden with her if the goal is as it should be to beat Trump.

And Mick Jagger will be 81 in July so it is not just a numbers thing.

nonsense Jingthing,   she can't put two words together, she doesn't have a clue about foreign policy or running the country, she's way out of her depth.    Ask anyone, and they'll tell you the same.

All debatable.

People just  don't like her including democrats. 

That's enough reason not to nominate her if you want to win.

Were Geraldine Ferraro, Joe Lieberman, and the crazy lady Sarah Palin also affirmative action picks?

It's normal enough to pick qualified people for VP that you hope will excite based on their identity. That's politics not affirmative action. I don't like her either but she doesn't deserve racist insults.

I agree totally that racist comments or anything racism has no place in US politics or anywhere else in society for that matter.

Not racist. Biden said he would pick a woman for vp during his first run. NOTHING to do with race, that's your spin. And - again - her ratings in the polls are lower than Biden's. She would not be a good choice.

I think Joe was set up.

 

His people allowed this early debate knowing full well how miserable it would turn out for him.  The MSM, DNC, and WH have been denying his cognitive decline for 3+ years but they all knew the truth. They knew the jig was up and encouraged this debate to allow time for Joe to be deposed and select another nomination. 

 

I don't have any skin in the game. But regardless of the future President's political leanings, for God's sake choose somebody who will stay awake behind the wheel. I'd like to think that if they decide to push that big red button, they were at least moderately cognitive and a little smarter than Homer Simpson.

That sounds like a contradiction in Terms! You are also being racist. She only qualifies as president because she is VP. However she is not qualified to be in such a position. by the pure fact that she is a complete idiot.

 

While you may not like it. I hope Trump does win. Because of the Dems stay in power, the world will be at war within 18 months. because neither Biden or Harris could actually control the neocons who want to break up Russia. And are willing to start a war to do that.

Removed some insults and name calling. I could have sworn Charlie laid out the ground rules in English.

for months on end on this forum people have been pointing it out. posters were ridiculed and called every name in the book for challenging the narrative. real question remains though as to why it was done this way ? 

 

debate is earliest in history. only debate before conventions. no real viable replacement other than one. who if you mention you are again ridiculed and called various names.

Harris?

Diversity hire.

 

Biden says he would prefer a person of color or a woman as his vice president

She was his insurance against getting impeached.  Sheer genius.  Evil, yes.  But genius.

 

Edit: I'd add that she's probably the reason nobody will invoke the 25th, in spite of an obvious and compelling need.

They say Jill doesn’t wane to give up all the First Lady privileges. To the extent she is pulling Joe’s strings, Biden may have little to say about it. 
 

As for  the current VP?  She was selected to be Biden’s insurance policy.  Anything happens to Joe and the country would have a world class mess on its hands. That’s another reason why I don’t see Biden stepping down before the end of his term.  No one wants a President Harris.  She might somehow get the idea that she’s actually in charge.  
 

So, the LBJ move is the most likely scenario.

There never was any reason to impeach him. You're confusing him with the criminal  Trump the worse president in American history.

I acknowledge that Harris has not been a successful VP but I don't think Biden planned it that way. Executives sometimes make hiring mistakes.

Of course she would be a horrible choice. We can agree on that.

The Democrats are better off sticking with Biden if she's the replacement. 

At this point Whitmer appears to be the smartest choice. She could win over the crucial Midwest swing states.

Mick exercises a LOT.

Also, he has good genes.

And, he has a very healthy lifestyle.

And, he is a happy person.

And, he does not have to be Prez.

 

So, an 81-year-old Stone, such as mick or Keith, who also lives a very healthy lifestyle, are much younger for their age, than Biden.

 

 

[jerrymahoney]

Yes so not every 81 year old has to look like Joe.

I don't think K. Harris is able (or willing) to assure anyone of anything.

It's just not in her nature.

 

This is one of the qualities that people seem to find objectionable about her nature.

So now we have established Joe is a vegetable we can debate if Kamala is unfit for office. Lol what an incredible ticket.

I agree, but it is a sad fact that racism is completely hardwired into American politics, and society, and has been for decades.

 

The current utter mess which is the upcoming general election serves to illustrate that.

I agree that any sane  person would likely not.

Biden is sane, I believe.

 

Therefore, what is he planning?

 

Is he just running in order to run, with no plans for the future?

 

If so, this is unlike any other candidate I have ever heard of.

 

Running for an office that one does not intend to fill?

 

Even when running for dog-catcher, most guys intend to catch dogs, once elected.

Pelosi was just on CNN saying Biden is still fit. During the interview she literally was having a hard time speaking and was reminiscent of Biden.
