#6 With Biden as the candidate:
* He is white as white can be so you lose the 'not an old white man' appeal against Trump.
* Bidens touchy gropy things means you lose the war on women argument against Trump.
* Biden's foot is in his mouth as often as Trumps so excusing his gaffs means you can't then attack Trumps without everyone noticing.
* Biden's legacy is Obama's legacy and the Dems have already started shredding that in their primaries. Reach further down the Biden resume and you have nothing. So comparing experience is out.
* I don't know if you can even say his hair is better, it sort of fades into his pale scalp but Trump's hair is entertaining.
* Biden has better name recognition than anyone else in the primaries but even before he was President Trump has higher name recognition.

By all means make Biden the leader of the Democrats.

#9 Who is going to war with Denmark?

A reference to the "Trump is buying Denmark" silliness that is going around. Although, I understand the Norwegians have some historical grievances.

#10 Doh! I mean "Trump buying Greenland" which is currently owned by Denmark.
In my defense, all those snowbound countries above 60 degrees north look alike to me.

#11 I remember some time ago , IIRC , on the History Chanel, they had a series on the high suicide rate of the natives of Greenland. It seems the Danes run the Island to suit themselves, and the natives feel useless since they can't live their old live style. If Greenland became a US state they could travel to the US and hunt Somali's in the warmer climate of Michigan and Minnesota.

#13 I suspected Greenland but how is buying a war?

Only communist think like that and I don't see European Conservative as fitting that description.

#17 Don't forget that Greenland is basically a socialist country. You really want two more Democratic senators?

#20 EC: No senators for Puerto Rico or VI or Guam.
Or for soon-to-be-renamed Vineland.
