James Carville: Biden Won’t Win. Democrats Need a Plan. Here’s One.

The jig is up, and the sooner Mr. Biden and Democratic leaders accept this, the better. We need to move forward.

But it can’t be by anointing Vice President Kamala Harris or anyone else as the presumptive Democratic nominee. We’ve got to do it out in the open — the exact opposite of what Donald Trump wants us to do.

We’re going to nominate a new ticket in a highly democratic and novel way, not in the backrooms of Washington, D.C., or Chicago.

I want to see the Democratic Party hold four historic town halls between now and the Democratic National Convention in August — one each in the South, the Northeast, the Midwest and the West. We can recruit the two most obvious and qualified people in the world to facilitate substantive discussions: Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. They may not represent every faction under our party’s big tent. But they care as much about our democracy as our nation’s first president, they understand what it takes to be president, and they know how to win.

So I would advise Presidents 42 and 44 to select eight leading contenders out of the pool of those who choose to run, with Ms. Harris most definitely getting a well-earned invite.

 But if we don’t limit the town halls to a manageable number of people we’ll get sound bites, not substance.

 A word about those delegates: I trust them to reach a majority decision at the convention after a public and substantive process like this one, and you should, too. Sure, we’ve got some folks on the fringes, God love ’em. But the overwhelming majority of Democratic delegates are pragmatic patriots.

 Any opinions about this idea?

How to Replace Biden: Longtime DNC Member Jim Zogby Proposes Process to Pick New Nominee  19 minutes

++++++++++++++++++

These plans sound reasonable to me. 

I'm thinking that Kamala will be the person to replace him.

She marks numerous boxes which will attract a lot of votes:

1. NOT Donald Trump

2. NOT Joe Biden!!!!!

3. NOT OLD but Trump is!!!!!!!!!!

4. Woman

5. Black

6, Natural successor to Biden as VP with experience(even though she was very weak).

7. Has access to the massive donations this year to the Biden/Harris campaign(others don't)

8. Can be president for 2 terms/8 years and represents the future of the D party!

++++++++++++++++++++++

9. Related to #s2-3 above. Can actually be the president 24 hours/day without a teleprompter.

This appears to be the worst thing to happen to Ds in my life time but beware Rs.

What we witness is often NOT the truth in politics and though some truths here couldn’t help but be witnessed by our own eyes and ears, the real plans are still not transparent, , just like they are STILL blatantly lying about Biden only having regular, annual check ups(that tell us that he doesn’t have the condition that we all know he has) because there is nothing wrong with him.

They get doctors to lie and cover up.  They get fellow dems to lie and cover up.  They get the media to lie and cover up. …..at least some of them are telling the truth but only because Biden cannot win.

If Biden could still beat Trump, many of these people would still support Biden……regardless Of whether he can actually do the job of president.

 Biden’s condition and that cover up has been exposed  but not the plan to replace him to beat Trump.

when they impose that plan, it’s entirely a new game and suddenly, dems are celebrating and uniting behind NOT Joe Biden and NOT Donald Trump…….a candidate of the future and the Rs won’t know what hit them because they celebrated too soon.

Watch for it!!!

Biden running in November is the best thing that could happen for the Rs, even though it won’t happen.

Biden, just acting as the confused, discombobulated, delusional and in denial president is the biggest gift to Rs in my lifetime.

Even much of the media and some dems have turned against him. That has never happened before that I remember.

Rs should be careful for what they wish for.

removing Biden would be the worst thing to happen to the Rs and best for dems Ahead of the election In just 4 months.

if they voted to impeach him, it will be a counterproductive waste of time near the end of his term.

The Rs don’t need to waste resources and time on a person that has almost no chance and is doing all the self inflicted damage to himself.

move on, almost exclusively to the positive messages that the Rs have for this country at this time of D turmoil and separate them from their opponents messages, whoever that is in just 4 months. 

then, when Biden is withdrawn, they made progress that can be applied AFTER Biden.

MIKE SAID: "The Rs don’t need to waste resources and time on a person that has almost no chance and is doing all the self inflicted damage to himself."

KEY WORDS: "almost no chance".  I'VE SAID IT BEFORE; I WON'T BE SHOCKED IF HE "WINS" THE WH.

IMO... ONLY THE ONES THAT HATE AMERICA, WILL VOTE THE "D" TICKET. HOW COULD ANYONE VOTE THE "D" TICKET, WHEN THEY NOW KNOW OF THE BLATANT COVER-UPS THAT HAVE BEEN GOING ON, FOR YEARS? I'D RATHER KNOW THEY DIDN'T VOTE, AT ALL.  HATE IS SUCH A POWERFUL, DESTRUCTIVE TOOL.

AS FOR THE "R" SIDE OF THE ISLE... I DO HOPE THEY USE EVERY POSSIBLE ANGLE THERE IS TO "GO AFTER" THE GUILTY.  NOT IN REVENGE, BUT... IN A LAWFUL MANNER.  THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON HONESTY & TRUST. WE NEED TO SEPARATE THE WHEAT FROM THE CHAFE....LAWFULLY...AND, I WON'T CARE IF SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY, SOMEONE IN THE "I" OR "R' PARTY SURPRISINGLY, GETS SNARED IN THE PROCESS.  THEY HAVE IT COMING.

I PUT NOTHING PAST A LIAR... NOTHING! THE GOOD LORD WILL DO THE FINAL SEPARATING, BUT.... IN THE MEANTIME... HE EXPECTS US TO EXPOSE THE EVIL AMONG US & CORRECT IT.

It's been over for Joe!

I've been saying that he would not make it this far for 3 years and am amazed that he did. Just shows how easy it is to bamboozle people in today's age.

All of a sudden, everybody knows about his condition here on July 11, 2024.

A month ago, on June 11, 2024, the people that knew were:

1. Covering it up

2. Accused of being political and cherry picking/exaggerating minor flaws that he supposedly has had his entire life (a big fat lie)


Anybody with OBJECTIVE eyes and ears knew earlier this year. Anybody applying critical thinking knew long ago.  If not for the debate debacle, Joe Biden's cognitive health decline would still be a secret for the majority of the D party.

Obama knew in advance of George Clooney’s bombshell call for Biden to drop out — but didn’t object
