I'm proud to endorse Amy Klobuchar

[😥]

Today I announce that I take my endorsement from Joe Biden.

Some may accuse me of treason because I am not a principled and responsible person. I'll answer right away. Joe Biden was, is and will be one of my favorite politicians, one of my "teachers", my icon, but I almost don't see any more way than he wins the nomination. I do not betray him, and I continue to believe that he would be one of the best Presidents the US has ever had. Joe could defeat Trump, unite the country, dramatically improve the lives of Americans and establish international relations. I believe it could solve many international problems as well as problems within America. You can safely call Joe Biden - the best Vice President America has ever had.

If Joe Biden wins Nevada and South Carolina, then maybe I'll get my endorsement back from him, though it's not part of my rules (I usually don't withdraw endorsement and then endorse again). But now I don't see a real possibility that Uncle Joe wins the nomination.

So sad that we won't see Biden as the next President. He deserves this position. And he deserves it more than 9 past presidents, from Trump to Nixon.

But with pain and sadness, I have to declare my support for the U.S. Senator from Minnesota Amy Klobuchar and say:

Joe, you need to drop out and endorse Klobuchar

Why Amy?

I think she has good chance of winning Nevada, which will give her extra momentum. Also, I think she has a great chance of showing herself to the African American minority and securing their support.

She is the most electable Democrat in the race, and it's hard to disagree, and the polls that show her not being strong are simply influenced by name recognition.

Amy Klobuchar is a pragmatic leader who can bring order to the country and the world, improve the well-being of people and solve numerous international problems

I can't support Michael Bloomberg because of this: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/02/11/not-long-ago-bloomberg-likened-putins-attack -ukraine-americas-annexation-california /% 3foutputType = amp

Until Bloomberg publicly announces his position on Ukraine, I will not support him. If Bloomberg announces that his administration will not send Ukraine military and / or financial assistance to my country, I will not support him in the primary and general election. The same goes for Sanders and Warren. If they do not change their position, I will support the candidates from 3 parties in the general election, if they are nominees

[😥]

Also, for some reason, I cannot remove my endorsement for Joe Biden on this forum and endorse of Amy, but please consider that I have endorsed Amy Klobuchar

Another problem with low-enthusiasm campaigns: Because nobody had any ideological commitment to the candidate, they start to jump ship the moment they realize they won't walk away with the nomination. Standing for nothing, having zero convictions, and expecting to coast on "electability" is not a winning strategy, shockingly enough.

[Meclazine for Israel]

Good for you. She has a positive energy and a nice smile.

I think she has some ground to make up, but is accelerating at precisely the right time.

[Lambsbread]

Surely this will put her over the edge.

Surely this will put her over the edge.

I'm proud the good people of Nevada turns to the Atlas for guidance before their caucus.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Who care

[Green Line]

Angry Amy the abusive boss doesn’t have a shot.  Change your endorsement to bloomverg or pete immediately.

[BP🌹]

I guess there is Ukrainian interference in our elections after all.

[TDAS04]

She'd be good, actually.

[Grassroots]

I like her but Pete is better.

[President Johnson]

I like her and would enthusiastically support her in the general election or if it came down to a contest between her and Bernie.

We're now on different pages as I will go to supporting Bloomberg at first and Pete at second if Joe Biden is really done.

[OBD]

I like her but Pete is better.

Sadly, she seems to be going backward.

Pete's an empty suit, but she didn't help herself going after him.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Pete's an empty suit

I'm becoming kind of concerned what would be the other thing Fuzzy and me turn out to be in agreement on.

[Fuzzy Bear]

Pete's an empty suit

I'm becoming kind of concerned what would be the other thing Fuzzy and me turn out to be in agreement on.

It would probably be when I endorsed Sanders after Weld upset Trump and named Romney as his running mate.

I'll certainly double down about Mayor Pete being an empty suit.  He knows what to say and he's prepared, and I could see him aceing the "entrance exam" for the White House, but he wouldn't know what to do if he got the job.  He'd be way, way over his head.  Sanders, on the other hand, isn't a Titan of the Senate (as, say, Mike Mansfield was), but he is the leader of a movement in the manner Trump is. 

[DINGO Joe]

Buttigieg isn't my first choice and he's obviously inexperienced, but somehow an empty suit sounds far far better to me than "movement" type.

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

First Belgian interference, now Ukrainian.

[Frodo]

I just cast my absentee ballot for Amy Klobuchar, though I went back and forth between her and Bernie Sanders.  What ultimately decided it for me was that she can better appeal to Midwestern swing voters, won't scare away the suburban voters who underpin our majority in the House (if you want to persuade me, don't condescend to me), has the experience that Pete Buttigieg conspicuously lacks, and the fact that this just doesn't seem to be the kind of election year that cries out for a revolutionary figure like Bernie Sanders. This is not a realignment election year like 1932 or 1980.  

Oh, and the fact that she would be ideal as the first woman president of the United States.  

[Yellowhammer]

Further evidence of Ukrainian interference in our sacred elections. When will Brian Stelter or Lawrence O’Donnell come across this and run a segment?

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Whom will be endorsed by the Teachers Union as the Veep to Bernie,  just watch
