Who said it was like team sports?
ie, like a team
You brought up how the candidates seemed to view the contest in more of an us vs. them, or team competition, sort of way. This isn't how primaries typically work. Primaries are typically contests of individuals. Sorry if that was unclear enough that I had to explain it to you.
Anyway, the point is that the voters didn't decide on Biden so much as Biden was decided for them.
The candidates coalesced around sucking the corporate cock.
Dude every primary has worked the same since the early 1950's. The early states always have much more influence than the later states.
Should all states vote at the same time? Yes probably so. But it likely made no difference. You still had the chance to vote for whoever you like, regardless of when your primary was.
Who the hell would be dumb enough not to vote for Bernie just because earlier voters chose Biden?
Sorry that I keep posting and delete or edit. I think we’re talking past each other for whatever reason so it isn’t particularly useful to keep making arguments.
Our differences aside I hope you have a good day :)
