Obama Will Be a Massive Idiot If He Fails To Back Kamala Harris, Now.

The king is dead.
Long live the Queen.
Joseph Robinette Biden, the man whose career has spanned well over 50 years, made the all-important decision to quit the stage, ahead of the Presidential elections in November.
But what he did next was quite extraordinary: endorse Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee and doing it immediately after the Republican National Convention.
Thus far, major Democrats have aligned with the wishes of the senile octogenarian, with the likes of Gavin Newsom, Stacey Abrams, Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backing Ms. Harris.
But someone has been extremely quiet and there are no prizes for guessing: Barack Obama.
America’s first Black President apparently wants an open primary at the convention due to take place next month and this author strongly believes that this is a huge misstep.
While it is fair to point out that this is uncharted territory for the Democrats, it is clear to see that the wind is clearly in Vice-President Harris’ sails and to seek to give the ticket to someone else who hasn’t got her name recognition will be profoundly misguided.
