Even very leftist friends I have go why did Biden pick her and so I explain that he didn't pick her. They did it for demographics. She polled in less than 2 percent in the DNC and dropped out first. The Democrats since Obama have been annointing their presidential nominee with superdelegates. The Obama's stole Hilarrys 2008 campaign because they thought she would lose to Mcstain because she was unpopular. And they didn't want another 12 year diaspora in Washington like they did with Reagan/Bush president.
