  • But if the DEMOCRATIC PARTY really really wants a GUARANTEE TICKET to  BEAT TRUMP -- it will be a BIDEN/BERNIE ticket ... UNBEATABLE!!!

    However, they  have  already  CONTRACTED  BIDEN  to  put  an  AFRO-WOMAN on THE TICKET if they want the AFRICAN-AMERICAN TURNOUT.

    Politically, I think that is a RISKY DECISION -- and the DEMOCRATIC PARTY cannot afford to take ANY RISKS if their PRIMARY OBJECTIVE is to BEAT TRUMP above ALL ELSE. (DOH FORGET THE SUPREME COURT APPOINTMENTS!!!)

    What a year 2020: GUYANA ELECTIONS, TRINIDAD ELECTIONS and AMERICAN ELECTIONS.

    Man, I could SHELTER IN PLACE until THANKSGIVING!!!
