As I've said before, the D primaries have a fairly strong hedge against that in that the candidate pool is far more diverse than was true of the 2016 R primary. In 2016, the candidates were basically all the same in background and positions, while the 2020 D primary isn't looking to have any clone candidates.

They're going to try to adopt each others positions and try to convince people they're the best one to do it sooner or later though.

They have to pick between old school and new school, young and old, moderate and socialist.  There's only so much fuzzing that can be done on that line.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Being famous clearly makes you insane.

Also it completely undercuts whatever actual problems there are when you orchestrate a hoax based on identity politics. As if we don't have enough people right now ready to say that racism died in 2004.

What happened in 2004?

Racism died.


At least, that's the popular account. True scholars understand that racism didn't truly die until much later, in 2017

The team up of Jay-Z and Linkin Park on the album "Collision Course" has to be given some credit for killing racism though.

That's also racist. It's just a stereotype.
