Guys, it's too late for the Demos to pick another candidate. Their convention starts on August 19. It is Biden or bust for them.

Don't rain on their parade.  They are just now realizing, after months of telling everyone they didn't have massive problem, how dire their situation is.  

After some research, it seems they have until August 22 to select a new candidate. This should be enough time for one of them to energetically Obama their way to the leadership.

Any Americans have any idea who the Democratic Party can nominate? Just a thought… maybe someone in the 35-60 age range…

That’s nearly two months away. I know the US political system is generally very drawn out, but it doesn’t have to be. Two months is still quite a while to select a new candidate. I’m sure, if need be, they could have one by Monday afternoon.

Kamala Harris is probably in the best spot (according to some American news clip I watched earlier) since she will either be the candidate or the VP candidate given it would be beneficial for someone prominent from the Biden admin to run with any new candidate.

I’m not too familiar with American politicians, younger ones at least, so perhaps some Americans have some ideas who would be competent and with the knowledge and experience to take on the job as President of the US. Just someone who is capable would be sufficient to beat Trump.

Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren are 77 and 75 respectively, but they’re like the only two competent and experienced politicians I can think of who are capable of running the US, but probably about 15 years older than the oldest one should be running for a first term. Both are sharp witted, ideologically sound, and incredibly experienced. Any Americans have better ideas? Preferably below the age of 60… maybe 65 tops.

The problem with replacing Biden at this stage in time is the optics.  It makes the entire party seem unorganized, out of touch and frankly a bit stupid.  Would the switch hurt other elections?

Trump is such a compulsive liar OMG. He really has his MAGA followers under a spell to be able to get away with all the fucked up shit he says and does. Meanwhile, sleepy Joe is not a good face for the democratic party at the moment. Someone younger and more charismatic is needed ASAP. I've heard people throwing around Gavin Newsome, though it doesnt seem like he'd want to do it based on how he was defending Biden after the debates last night.

Aren't statewide Dems running like 10 points ahead of Biden in some polls? Makes me think they are more or less insulated from what's going on at the top of the ticket - assuming this degree of ticket-splitting holds in the actual elections, that is.

At this point, if Biden wins it'll probably be because people despise the alternative even more, not because they think he's fit for office. Think Fetterman's election after a disastrous debate with Oz, or, more grimly, Hindenburg winning over Hitler at death's door.

Getting Biden out is no where near as simple as this.

Please read this piece by the BBC:

Can Biden be replaced as Democrat nominee?

in the future, I’d use a trusted information resource and not a comedy show for this sort of thing.

Seems to go both ways this time. If Trump wins it will also be because people despise Biden. Not that they'll vote for Trump, but either abstain or vote for a 3rd party.

It looks like it will come down to who can get most of their loyal voters to turn out. Not for who's leading the party but to keep their party in the lead. In the end the president still needs to be backed up by his party and hopefully the Republicans see more sense than Trump, and the Democrats can keep Biden from falling over :/

Electoral reform is badly needed. The US 2 party system is reaching a dead end. US is a plutocracy in all but name, been so for over a decade at least.

It would be nice to see a new face at this point.
