What Democrats are basically telling me is that I should ignore Biden's worst stances from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000's and instead only see him through Obama colored glasses. We are basically supposed to view and grade Biden through the emotional lens of Obama's love of him.
I know Joe Biden was the primary architect of mass incarceration, that he fought like hell for it, and defended it for years. I know it impacted millions of people & those laws are still in effect today. But listen, Obama fucking loves this guy, and really, that's what matters.
I call it the Obama Curve. It's when you have been blessed by Obama in some way, particularly having served with him in office, your demonstrated political views & history don't actually get graded & scored on their own merit, but get scored on a favorable Obama Curve.
It's wild to me that ANYONE thinks it's strange that a lifelong justice reform advocate would find being THE MODERN ARCHITECT OF MASS INCARCERATION disqualifying. Here's what I know - if Mitch McConnell was the architect of mass incarceration you'd never hear the end of it.
No, what matters is electability, and the ability to defeat Trump!
electability is a farce. look at Obama's polling early in the 08 race
I'll take that as "I rather see Trump win in 2020".
Not my stance. I just would rather we refrain from attacking candidates to the point of no return if they do eventually win the primary. This stance is valid, but come November 2020, we have to vote with a purpose.
I know you work for Bernie now but there’s no need to go after Biden. He has the best chance at defeating @realDonaldTrump
Based on what?
The dude doesn't even have a functioning website. And he's running President in 2020 Of America.....not like Estonia or something where that wouldn't matter.
It doesn’t matter to the ‘likely voters with landlines’ that they keep polling...

Don't let them stifle you @shaunking
We didn't make this ugly but we don't have to be afraid to speak up. I find it best to just scream at them sometimes!
I hope you vote for whoever Trump's opponent is because the lesser of two evils is still the better choice.
But Shaun, he went into "the community" and taught black women it's O.K. to say no to sex.
What do we do about the die-hard local, Black activists who also supported the bill and its goals, fought like hell for it, and defended it for years?
It actually says something about Obama.
When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I've never tried before.
