I have been a big fan of Harris and was thrilled when Biden chose her for VP. Biden has been mentoring her for the past 4 years and she has earned the nomination for President. I will be joyously voting for her!
::Buttigieg...dropped out before Sanders, Warren, or Bloomberg, but he had a much more successful campaign than any of them did.::
I'd say that depends on what you want to accomplish. Bernie Sanders dropped out because he realized COVID-19 was far more important than if he wanted watch the DNC deny his right to be their candidate again, like they did for Hillary Rodham Clinton back in 2016! More to the point, unlike Hillary, Joe Biden realized that Bernie had a lot of good ideas that could be...modified to be more palatable to the Owner Class, and make Trump look like a spoiled Lu-ZER!
Harris took the VP slot because she wanted to run for President, same as Buttgieg. Sanders wanted his Democratic Socialist ideas to be talked about in public, something Hillary would never EVER permit—but Biden not only did, he even adopted them...sort of...a bit...if you squinted real hard....
this is silliness. Clinton didn't even need NY to win.
Sanders didn't come close to winning in 2016, and not really in 2020 either. His campaigns demonstrated that running an anti D campaign in a D primary in hopes of activating non D or alienated voters doesn't work. It was worth trying, but I think the left should take the lesson to heart rather than trying to explain why it somehow wasn't fair or how we should try the same failed tactics again.
You made the point about Harris’s first campaign and that opened my eyes a bit, thank you.

I don't really agree with most of this. Sanders dropped out because he lost!
He and Biden do have a much better relationship than Sanders ever had with Clinton, for sure, though.
Yeah, funny how everybody said that, when 125,000 Democratic primary ballots went missing in New York State....
You want to talk "election fraud"? I look no further than Hillary Rodham Clinton, may she BERN in Hell!
