Biden on Brink of Withdrawing From the Race

Sooner the better, I know it’ll only be Kamala Harris replacing him (Michelle Obama’s would be the one but she doesn’t want it) but if KH gives us a hope of not having the Fat Ginger Putinista back then get on with it America.
 
Harris will probably be the one though, because of the millions already raised for the Harris Biden ticket. They’ve got a war chest already sat there ready to go. If both her and Biden are off the ticket, then I believe it can’t be used? I’m not very clued up on these things so don’t know for sure, but US elections are all about campaign funds.
 
Harris could be great. She's not white or male enough to beat Trump though unfortunately. If they have enough sense that they are replacing Biden because he can't win then Harris replacing him doesn't make sense. Gavin Newsom as @FabioPorkpie says seems to be the most obvious choice if you were choosing a president based on how they look.

I literally know nothing about Newsom's politics and how he is perceived by the public though so I could be way off.

Obama (Michelle) doesn't make any sense to me. I'm really baffled how presidents seemingly have to be chosen from a tiny pool of former president's friends or relatives.

Newsomj isn’t liked in the swing states and that’s where it’s won and lost. Harris also not great on that basis. That being said Harris can do it if Biden steps aside without needing permission from the party. She becomes president and automatically gets the right to stand as incumbent.
 
Its a legit news site and there aren't loads of ads

I'm sure it is, I meant the thread title, it's seemingly an article just full of speculation and opinions that the current pressure might get him to pull out.

I hope it does, by the way, I'm dreading the idea of Trump getting back in and the negative impact it'll have on the world, and Biden's more of a hindrance than help now.

I just thought there was something more concrete happening when I opened the thread.
 
I'm not sure there is a perfect candidate - if there was Biden wouldn't be still clinging on. Harris has been anonymous for the last 3 years, and (I can't believe I am saying this in 2024) she is the wrong gender and the wrong colour. Newsome isn't the answer, too divisive and too left leaning even for most Democrats. He is one of the "rich coastal elite" that doesn't sit well in rural Americana. I think a ticket of Grechen Whitmer and Mark Kelly would be a strong pairing. Whitmer has been a rock as Governor of Michigan and has a lot of political capital with the other rust belt state - those that form the so called "Blue Wall". Plus she's a strong, successful female which would irk Trump immensely. Mark Kelly is Arizona senator, ex-Navy, ex-astronaut. Already an American hero that people can relate to and vote for. A far better resume for the "patriot's" to get behind than bone-spur addled, draft dodging Trump.
