Old-And-In-The-Way -- the 1 Paragraph Version

#217: Quick Check
...................

My old-and-in-the-way post (link) discusses what could happen if Biden and Bernie dominate the 2020 Democratic primary field through the summer and into the fall.  I describe a 2020 Emergency Plan with several scenarios that would see Democrats team up to overtake the older generation.  The first scenario involves a pair of individual candidates running as president and veep (with voters choosing which).  The second involves a 3-member team.  And the third imagines an elaborate scheme to divvy up states among all prominent candidates in order to not only stop the near-80-year-olds, but in the process to determine who has the most pull with voters, and as a result, who becomes the nominee.  The over-arching theme is unity in diversity, as candidates bring their home state and regional communities with them into the general election season.
