Replacing an incumbent the same year as the election would be unprecedented. I really don’t think this is the time to be fucking around unless we want to find out.
if all the “vote Blue No Matter Who” centrists actually meant what they say… it wouldn’t matter.
that said, the only way it wouldn’t be an unmitigated disaster is if Biden made that decision himself.
They should…
Who? Who is the better candidate? I don’t want Biden to be the nominee because I think he could lose to Trump, but who has a better chance of winning?
I don’t want Biden to be the nominee because I think he could lose to Trump
Hillary wanted Trump to be the nominee in 2016 because she didn’t think he would be taken seriously, which might be how they ended up in this f**king mess in the first place.
I didn’t want Hillary to be the nominee because I thought she could lose to Trump.
Oh I don’t know, perhaps there should be some sort of primary where people step up and debate so people could be exposed to new names and ideas and vote for whoever they think would be the best person to beat Trump.
Wait a minute that sounds kind of familiar …
Yes, and who is participating that would be a better candidate?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Washington is abuzz with fresh concerns about President Joe Biden’s fitness after a special counsel report released Thursday raised questions about his memory.
Both parties have moved away from the era when insiders in proverbial smoke-filled rooms could be kingmakers at the national conventions, and Biden has dominated every primary he’s competed in thus far.
The “Access Hollywood” tape provoked some prominent Republican leaders to call for ditching Donald Trump, but then-RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said, “No such mechanisms exists."
Still, the DNC Charter does make provisions in case the party’s nominee is incapacitated or opts to step aside, and an anti-Biden coup at the convention is theoretically possible, if highly unlikely.
His long-shot primary challengers, Rep. Dean Phillips, D-Minn., and self-help author Marrianne Williamson, who suspended her campaign this week, have won no delegates so far.
If large swaths of the Democratic Party lost faith in Biden, delegates to the national convention could theoretically defect en masse.

No. The only person who can stop a sitting President from running is that very same President.
See Johnson, 1968.
