I've narrowed my primary field to four candidates.

I will be focusing on Biden, Harris, Inslee and O'Rourke unless someone interesting jumps in or someone in the rest of the field stands out.

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

Such a wonderful selection we have. California_Republic Mar 2019 #1

Nothing against most of the rest of the field RandySF Mar 2019 #2

Maybe a good VP or senator California_Republic Mar 2019 #3

Of the four you mentioned, Biden is the only one I'm totally opposed to (in the primary). BlueStater Mar 2019 #4

I think I'm one of the few people who is not terribly excited over Biden. He's got an awful lot Vinca Mar 2019 #5

Pete, for example, is great, but I see big things for him in Indiana in the near future.

And, yes, I'll vote for him if he wins the nomination, but he hopefully will not. I've had more than enough posts hidden for stating my strong opinion on him running. Can't afford another one.

Inslee is my choice. I don't know if I'd like Harris or O'Rourke at the top of the ticket, but I'd be fine with them as VP candidates.

of baggage to carry. The Anita Hill hearings will come up (among other things) and at this point, with powerful women at the forefront, it won't be a good thing. I'm also a bit ageist (disclaimer: I'm old). I think it's time for the younger generation to have their day in the sun.
