If the primary system is already “loosely democratic” then we’re not really throwing anything away by choosing a different nominee.

I disagree. If you start with a flawed system and then go to a worse system, you’re marching in the wrong direction.

If Biden legitimately has health issues, he should resign as President, not just bow out of reelection. The fact that very few are calling for that belies the fact that few actually believes he’s unhealthy. They just don’t think he’ll win and want a different candidate.

This upheaval against Biden is too late. It undermines the entire process we have and makes Democrats appear as poor for the country as Republicans.

We already have a bad system for primaries that is only loosely democratic. It takes votes into consideration but is a broken system that heavily favors super-delegates and pressures primary opponents of an incumbent to drop out.

But if we throw away any implication of democratic elections in choosing the nominee, we just trade one type of descent into authoritarianism for another.

The time for this was during primary elections for the Democratic nominee, not now. Doing it now undermines the rule of law, reduces any moral high ground Democrats have going into a very close election, and erodes any little chance remaining of a nonviolent transfer of power in January.

This is awesome! Amazing work.

Did you secure it to the wall with anything? I’d be concerned it may fall out given how narrow it is (and that kids tend to pull and push on shelves).

Man can literally stack blocks of water and is excited about units being easy to convert. Wild.
