The other candidates act like that part of the party doesn't matter anymore because they tend to not be very 'twittery', and many will probably turn to conspiracy theories to explain why their favorite didn't get picked; when the truth is that Biden is likely to appeal to more Democratic voters than the rest combined, who seem to be competing to see who can do the best at distancing themselves from party moderates. I like Kamala Harris, but I don't see her beating Biden in the primaries. If Biden gets the nomination I will vote for him because it would be a tremendous improvement over what we have now. And that goes for pretty much anyone else who might get the nomination; but I hope Democrats pick someone who can win and unite behind them. And it would be nice to see one of the other candidates on the ticket.
Biden isn't a moderate though, he's a conservative. Yeah, he'd be better than Trump. If that's his only selling point to liberals, he ain't going to win. Liberals have to fall in love, and nobody's falling in love with Joe Biden. He's in the pocket of corporations, attacks Millenials while he defends Dick fucking Cheney of all people, and received $200k to support Fred Upton in his re-election while Democrats were trying to gain that seat. If he's who the Democrats put up, we can expect another four years of Trump.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
