We haven't really had primaries around the country (even in '68 at least half the country didn't have primaries and didn't assign delegates via that method) until the 70's. Heck, in '68 Humphrey didn't even appear on most ballots in the states that did have primaries as he was just focused on collecting delegates from the non-primary states. And we did have that controversy in 2016 where the DNC seemed to be heavily tilted towards Clinton, in terms of how the primary was run, who got debate questions in advance and who didn't, etc, in order to stem support for Sanders.

Re: When does Biden drop out of the race?
In your defense, a major failing of our school system when it comes to teaching history is that most never get past WWII before the school year is over. Things like the '50's and '60's were entirely omitted back when I was in school (late '70's kindergarten for me). Even now I still don't think we really cover those recent areas of our history very well.BDKJMU wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 7:44 amI thought I saw we went to the current primary system post WWII. So I stand corrected- more like post Vietnam. So change that 19 to 14 and my point remains.GannonFan wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 7:35 am

Re: When does Biden drop out of the race?
I ended up getting a minor in US History in college and I purposely took a course on America in the 1960's just so I could find out what really happened during that decade since the school system wouldn't tell me. In their defense, the really expensive textbooks they bought in the late '70's/early '80's didn't cover that period and they weren't slated to replace the books for another 5-10 years at that point. The Big Textbook lobby in this country was like the mafia back then.kalm wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 8:30 amTotally agree.

He’s unequivocally the dumbest president in the modern era. He makes George W. Bush sound like a rocket surgeon.
This is not arguable.

Wrong. That would be Biden. This is not argueble.
Heck, the debate CLEARLY showed who is smarter. Not even close.
More evidence: The 4+ year Biden gaffe and verbal bungle thread. A stuttering, slurring, mumbling fool..

Re: When does Biden drop out of the race?
There is no connection between stuttering and intelligence.
What about all the dumb sh!t trump has said (nuking hurricanes; boats, batteries & sharks, etc.)?
Neither is the brightest bulb in the chandelier.

He's gone, and nothing's going to bring him back. So sad.

Re: When does Biden drop out of the race?
Actually, there's a lot of schools of thought that think stuttering is indicative of higher intelligence, at least on average. May not be true for each and every individual, but it's out there.

Next your going to claim there is no correlation betwen mumbling, slurring, not remembering shit, and intelligence.

Stuttering is more likely explained by social anxiety or similar than lack of intelligence. Playground bullies who like to pick on people to cover for their own lack of self esteem might disagree with me.

we just witnessed almost 4 years of the most dumbest, idiotic president that couldn’t even string a sentence together. A totally fake presidency and a cover-up. And you wanna talk about George W. Bush.

History will look far more kindly on Biden than Bush or Trump.
