But how could we realistically get to them? Biden says he is running and how’s that going to change?
By making the larger conversation about “Biden needs to step aside”, rather than being half split between “we need to all align behind Biden”. There’s still 4 months, and the convention hasn’t happened.
And man, how fucking sad would it be (even if it would be very American) for our first woman president to get there by an old white guy dying and she being the default replacement?
If he voluntarily stepped down, I don’t think it would be that sad. Kind of sad that Americans are not yet ready to vote a woman into presidency, if that’s what you mean, but otherwise it looks fine?

Question: Could Biden get elected, then at some point decide he’s no longer fit for duty? Would that still make Harris president?
Yes, if the president stops being president, for any reason, the VP becomes president. That’s what I’m saying would be incredibly sad.

That’s exactly what I mean.
