Not to worry, Ted, I understand John Forbes Kerry is considering a run, as Joseph Robinette Biden doesn’t seem to cut it. After all, it went so well the last time ’round…. 😉

A gem. This puts me in exactly the right frame of mind to watch the caucuses in Iowa.
What has changed to keep the DNC from blocking him once again?. When 1% of the population have 90% of the power they tend to use it to protect their interests. It will take cunning to beat them, and not mere indignation, no matter how righteous.
Bernie threatens to get money out of politics, leaving the DNC impecunious. Better that Joe lose to Trump than that Bernie win. Much better.
