Why are you so touchy about people calling out racism?

I'm not. I called you out for it when you called me 'white'. I don't even know why you did it, except maybe it makes you feel better about insulting me or something. I don't always understand racist behaviours.

I'm a bit touchy about calling it so vaguely though. It reminds me very much of 'original sin', in that you can never pin it down, you just have to keep atoning.

Maybe you didn't label me 'white' as a racist shitheel act, but you haven't explained yourself any better, so I'm left guessing.

So, let's assume Biden dies before the election? Who's going to be the democrat candidate? Does it matter whether he has already nominated a running mate or not?

What if he'd die just a die before the election?

Sounds like a conspiracy theory.

Biden is the democratically chosen candidate, so they can't just switch him out without having another vote...

Unless, of course, the Democrat Party isn't all that democratic...

There must be some process in place

Last time, the process was to cheat, and make Hillary the candidate, despite the wishes of the voters.

Do you expect something fair this time? Or more clear democratic party corruption?

Biden is trying...I hear he kneeled for the racisms, and puts on a mask when fashionable. Why would you suspect he was not going to be the candidate?

Conspiracy theory?

I'm talking about the law. There must be a process in the law how to deal with a deceased candidate. He's old and there's still a virus around that is trying to get old people. So, no conspiracy.

I'm just teasing, NB. He was clearly NOT the candidate from the start, but that's nutty (until he is replaced, I mean)

I don't know the process, but I bet the people manipulating the party know those processes really well. They successfully cheated before, in front of everyone, so their 'process' isn't as important to me.

Maybe the process is clearly laid out on their site. I would check it against the wayback machine though...it's probably an evolving document.

No law. Our political parties are private corporations. The party probably has a process, but I have no idea what that would be.

Uhm. There's ballots. There needs to be a process which names appear on the ballot. So, the law must be involved.

Government prints the ballots, but it's not involved in choosing who would replace Biden.

Uhm. There's clear cheating last go-round, with Clinton benefiting from the cheating. So, if the law is involved, it is complicit or indifferent.

A rare candidate like Obama improved turnout. It occasionally helps Democrats, likability. But republicans usually vote their guy no matter what. The independents then move right or left. Trump wore out his populist tag. He did not actually MAGA.
