Trump has no competitors. He has continued to shatter norms at every turn by stoking fear and resentment with his combustible brand of grievance politics and people loves it
Trump no tiene competidores. Él ha seguido rompiendo las normas a cada paso al avivar el miedo y el resentimiento con su combustible de política de quejas y la gente lo ama
Biden has cast himself as “most qualified” candidate to be president. Despite a life marked by personal tragedy, Biden is adored by some Democrats – and some Republicans – as the affable, blue-collar “Uncle Joe”. He is the man
Primaries were conceived in the early Progressive Era (c1910) as a great reform to give members of a Party a voice in choosing that Party’s candidates – instead of the bosses in the back room. Hurrah! But that reform is totally vitiated when a person who does not belong to a Party, or have any commitment to that Party, comes barging in to influence that Party’s choice of candidates. I don’t vote in Knights of Columbus elections, or VFW or the Elks, BECAUSE I DON’T BELONG THERE. Parties should welcome anyone who wants to JOIN, but not welcome political drifters with wholly different agendas. Independents have no business voting in ANY party primary. The Progs have nearly ruined the Democratic Party by vetoing any Democrat candidate who doesn’t buy the Prog agenda. For a long time both Republican and Democratic Parties in VT favored closed primaries, but by the 1970s they had given up. We’re headed toward an Italian multiparty system with interest group factions jockeying for a share in power. Not good.
The “reform” of getting rid of the smoke-filled room (which I’m sure I would’ve supported) along with low primary participation had the unforeseen consequence of putting each party’s nomination process in the hands of the party extremes who do turn out. Candidates swerve left or right to get nominated and then race back to the middle (or at least part way to the middle) to get elected. In the general we often end up with a poor choice.
But I can’t agree that I owe fidelity to a party since no party owes fidelity to me. Nor are the current two parties guaranteed to be the best two parties we could have.They have both grown ossified; they are both actually wedded to much the same status quo (don’t mean to sound like Bernie but he’s right about some things). That status quo isn’t very ideological; it’s more statist with a healthy dose of good old boy and girl network. Note the bipartisan disinterest in actually pursing the state’s role in the Kingdom Con here in Vermont. It may be time for a realignment like the one which produced the current Republican party.
Long answer but John always makes me think. We need the best candidates we can get. I think I need to vote in whichever primary offers them. That could, obviously, lead to changing allegiance to the party which offers the best (IMO) candidates.
by “best” I mean the candidate I think would be the best president out of this field. I might decide that that candidate would be worse than Trump in the general and vote for him again. But I also know the dem candidate might be elected and so want that to be the best choice possible.

well, we could go to Celebrity Fractions, like the European Marxists did 1870-1918. They had Bernstein, Bakunin, Proudhon, Kautsky, Lenin, Luxemburg, and maybe a dozen more think-alike groups (“fractions”). We would have Trumpsters, Sanderistas, Warrenites, Bloombergers, Bidennians, Gabbardos, Yangies, Klobuchniki. Join the one you like and have a political steel cage match. Uhh..but how will the winning coalition actually govern?

por “mejor” me refiero al candidato que creo que sería el mejor presidente de este campo. Podría decidir que ese candidato sería peor que Trump en general y votar por él nuevamente. Pero también sé que el candidato dem podría ser elegido y por eso quiero que esa sea la mejor opción posible.

bueno, podríamos ir a las Fracciones de Celebridades, como lo hicieron los marxistas europeos en 1870-1918. Tenían Bernstein, Bakunin, Proudhon, Kautsky, Lenin, Luxemburgo, y tal vez una docena más de grupos similares (“fracciones”). Tendríamos Trumpsters, Sanderistas, Warrenitas, Bloombergers, Bidennians, Gabbardos, Yangies, Klobuchniki. Únete al que más te guste y ten un partido político de jaula de acero. Uhh … pero ¿cómo gobernará realmente la coalición ganadora
Las primarias fueron concebidas a principios de la era progresista (c1910) como una gran reforma para dar a los miembros de un partido una voz en la elección de los candidatos de ese partido, en lugar de los jefes de la trastienda. ¡Hurra! Pero esa reforma está totalmente viciada cuando una persona que no pertenece a un Partido, o que no tiene ningún compromiso con ese Partido, interviene para influir en la elección de candidatos de ese Partido. No voto en las elecciones de Caballeros de Colón, ni en VFW ni en los Elks, PORQUE NO PERTENGO AQUÍ. Los partidos deberían dar la bienvenida a cualquiera que quiera UNIRSE, pero no a los vagabundos políticos con agendas completamente diferentes. Los independientes no tienen derecho a voto en CUALQUIER partido primario. Los Progs casi han arruinado al Partido Demócrata al vetar a cualquier candidato demócrata que no compre la agenda Prog. Durante mucho tiempo, los partidos republicanos y demócratas en VT favorecieron las primarias cerradas, pero en la década de 1970 se habían rendido. Nos dirigimos hacia un sistema multipartidista italiano con facciones de grupos de interés que compiten por una participación en el poder. No está bien.

Isn’t Tulsi on the race anymore?
Why you left her out?
Just because she has ONE delegate does not mean she has a chance LOL 🙂
She is just enjoying her 15 minutes of fame
Ella solo está disfrutando de sus 15 minutos de fama
¿Ya no está Tulsi en la carrera?
¿Por qué la dejaste afuera?
El hecho de que ella tenga UN delegado no significa que tenga una oportunidad LOL

Still don’t know why non-partisans can not vote.
Aún no sé por qué los no partidarios no pueden votar.
IT LOOKS LIKE BIDEN IS GOING TO MAKE IT…NOW, UNCLE TRUMP WILL KILL HIM AT THE DEBATES
