Will Leitch, I wonder if you read comments on your excellent Medium articles.

Why are the Democrats terrified of having an open primary? Is Joe Biden the only person who can do the presidential job successfully? To believe so is nonsense.

Democrats risk being stuck with Biden or an incapable Kamala Harris. That Biden can't be replaced, and we will have an eighty-six-year-old President is a colossal want of imagination.

Ronald Reagan was described as spry and active in his first term, becoming mentally out of it in his second term.

Biden clearly wants to stick his neck out and run. He should be stopped. The enabling politicians are terrified of publicly saying a younger and more talented person would make more sense. And as for the elite press? They have gelled into groupthink.

These enablers avoid the question of -- what to do about Harris? as if that will magically resolve itself.

Many thanks.
