O now you question it when the rest of us wanted to have a normal primary to see if we had a better option.
The wealthy Capitalists that fund the DNC (and GOP, of course) didn’t want it to happen, so it didn’t. The US isn’t very democratic at all.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Speaking in a hoarse voice and repeatedly losing his train of thought, Mr Biden’s debate performance did the opposite of reassuring the Democratic base of his chances to win the presidential race a second time.
An unnamed “top” Biden donor told Reuters that the president’s performance was “disqualifying” and that he believed there would be a brokered convention, which is when a party in US politics fails to nominate a presidential candidate on the first round of delegate voting.
“Democrats are so panicked over President Joe Biden’s faltering debate performance they are actively discussing what was once unspeakable: replacing him on the ticket,” an article on the American political news site Politico said.
Others who Mr Biden beat during the party’s 2020 presidential primary could also try again, including senators Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, as well as Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
All the states have already held their presidential primaries, and Democratic rules mandate that the delegates Mr Biden won support him at the party’s upcoming national convention unless he tells them he’s leaving the race.
If Mr Biden did opt to abandon his campaign, his potential replacements could end up having to lobby individual state delegations at the convention, which hasn’t happened for Democrats since 1960 with John F Kennedy and Lyndon B Johnson jockeying for votes.
