Sure, cause polls really nailed the last two Presidential election cycles! I won't speak for democrats. As a left-leaning independent: I'm frustrated to hell and back to see a Trump / Biden rematch. I don't want either. Seeing these two again, shows the inability of either party to deliver. This just further cements why I stopped aligning with the Democratic party, and why I continue to become more and more disgusted with both political parties.

[@jessieball6195]

Frankly, I think it just shows how incredibly lazy the two Parties are when it comes to selecting their candidate. The Party with the President in the White House will almost always push their guy/girl-no matter what amount of baggage/shortcomings may come with that person. I voted for Biden last election because I certainly did not think our country could survive a second Trump term, but that doesn't mean that I should be automatically assumed to be voting for him again. I WILL say now that given the choice between Biden or Trump again, I CERTAINLY would not vote for Trump-under any situation.

I would NEVER vote for the corrupt Trump, but the fact is that Biden, President or not, would be pushing 82 years old if/when elected to office, that's not a young age. Obama going into his second term in office was in his 50's, at least 25 years younger than Biden is now. I voted for Biden simply because I wanted to kick out Trump, but Americans should still be offered other options than simply Biden or Trump.
