Cuomo instead of Biden
Cuomo instead of Biden
The link below is an article from the New York Post. A majority of Democrats want to nominate New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for president instead of Joe Biden, according to poll results shared exclusively with The Post..
Now I'm not wanting a discussion about if this would be a good idea or not.
But could someone explain to me the process involved in doing this? Of course we agree there's no way Cuomo can get more delegates than Biden by the convention. So how would they go about doing this? Is it possible? Thanks.

Oh yeah, I'm sure just like any other poll, there's a slant towards some sort of interest.Rate This wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 8:22 pmThe poll was from the Club for Growth which is a Republican interest group with an interest in seeing Biden fail...Mike Oxlong wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:30 pmThe link below is an article from the New York Post.

But the query I was posting was an explanation of the logistics involved in getting someone who wasn't in the primaries to be the nominee. Is it something that could be done? And if so, what would the process be?

Trump instead of either.
What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
Can someone explain to me all the praise Andrew Cuomo is receiving? What has he done to earn it?
His track record as Governor is mixed, and he is also isn't a very charismatic fellow, either. The Dem establishment always falls head over heels in love with anyone whose last name is "Kennedy" or "Cuomo," for some reason.

His decisive actions in the pandemic have him sitting pretty. He doesn’t want it I don’t think.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sun Apr 12, 2020 10:09 amCan someone explain to me all the praise Andrew Cuomo is receiving? What has he done to earn it?

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
Setting aside partisan politics- I suspect it's because he's (arguably) appeared to have been a more competent presenter on TV during the Covid crisis than any other politician of either party. It appears that he has done his homework before his updates - he runs his own PowerPoint and actually seems to know what is on each slide beyond just the words. That isn't a whole lot to go on of course, but since Nixon v Kennedy how you look and act on TV carries a lot of weight.

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
Plenty of governors have taken "decisive actions." Not sure how or why he's special compared to the others.

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
His almost daily press conferences/addresses that have been broadcast show an intelligent man, addressing a serious problem with clarity and are well-spoken. They stand out compared to the bumbling banter of Biden, and the lies, vitriol, and idiocy of Trump.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sun Apr 12, 2020 10:09 amCan someone explain to me all the praise Andrew Cuomo is receiving?

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
A lot of people in New York, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, had major issues with Cuomo. Many still do today.

Re: Cuomo instead of Biden
Since Biden has not locked up the nomination with enough delegates, the party is free to choose to put whomever they want forward. Even if he did get enough delegates, the party could change their own rules. The real hurdle is what date you have to file in each state to be on the ballot for the general election.Mike Oxlong wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:30 pmThe link below is an article from the New York Post.

I thought the Dums' elite had already circled their wagons around plugs.
What other actions could happen to once again prove them wrong?
