[Vision2020] Is Latah county competing for a least informative web site prize?

[Ted Moffett]

I am dismayed that Biden is likely the Democratic Party nominee for
president, given his alarming apparent cognitive decline, and questionable
history of political decisions.  Sanders appears far more intellectually
competent.
In the upcoming March 15 debate this will be apparent, I think.

In some circles all that matters is who has the best chance to defeat
Trump, not who is the most competent candidate for the nation.  I would
rather Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Warren, Buttigieg, or Bloomberg were
the dem nominee, to pick a variety of political orientations, rather then
Biden!  All of them I think are far more capable.

Cozy public familiarity and name recognition are dominant factors?  Isn't
this "media popularity" approach responsible in part for Trump assuming the
presidency?

"I know Joe. We know Joe. But most importantly, Joe knows us," Clyburn said.
