because he is an old man. Democrats are openly speculating that voters will understand that they are really voting for his successor.
Here's their pitch: "Yeah, he's old and past his prime but go 'head and vote for ol' Joe and he will shoehorn the first woman president in by stepping aside after he shuffles a few laps around the oval office. He is really just running for the office of ex-president. Go on, give Joe the "job!" You are really just giving him a lifetime "achievement" award. He is lucid enough to understand he has to set-aside if anything important comes up and step down as soon as possible. Honest!"
Questions:
Why not just run the woman you think should be president? Why does she need to ride a man's coat-tails Hillary style?
Who does this appeal to?
Identitarians would want to see a woman as the nominee, not window dressing. Those women-haters, like DNC primary and caucus voters tgat do not think a woman would be up for the job aren't going to be excited to do a 1-2 shuffle to get a woman they did not see as worthy to run for president in.
It's a really weird gambit. I don't see how they go all the way to November with Joe Biden and I don't see how they get around the Bernie Bros to dump Joe before November.
