Owing to the presence of Senator Edwards, the '04 Kerry ticket was the better Dem ticket of the two
We are talking about the same Senator Edwards here, aren’t we? You know, the one who cheated on his dying wife.
Yep, and I'm talking about his actual policy positions, which are the only thing that matters
Character does matter. It’s not everything, but it matters. Ability to lead matters. Etc. Saying policy positions are the ONLY things that matter is how many Trump supporters rationalize their votes for him. But the reality is a president with similar policy positions as Trump but was more stable and competent would be better, as being president is NOT all about policy/ideology. Just look at how this COVID crisis has been handled as a very big and very obvious example of how something not inherently political like a virus can be botched if the president is a moron/scumbag. A president with similar policy positions but more respect for democratic institutions also wouldn’t be threatening to undermine our elections, wouldn’t have already solicited help from foreign powers to do it, etc.
Also aren’t you the same one who was going on about how Biden has no integrity or some stupid s—t like that because he wouldn’t commit to a position on court packing? Yet Edwards is just fine? Ridiculous.
It’s not like Edwards was some super leftist anyway. Hell his healthcare plan was basically Obamacare. Certainly wasn’t Medicare for All. And he initially supported and voted for the Iraq War.
