Philip Rucker / Washington Post: Donna Brazile: I considered replacing Clinton with Biden as 2016 Democratic nominee  

The above headline makes clear just how divided the Democrat Party is.  You know Biden would have accepted the nomination.  In 2016,  Joe Biden made it clear  -  more than once  -  that he was considering a presidential run.  Now we know that he backed down due to the nearly criminal hold Hillary Clinton on party politics.  There is little doubt that Biden would have accepted the nomination, if Brazile had worked in his favor AND exhibited the resolve necessary to expose/oppose Hillary.  

Understand that Donna Brazile represents the Gore faction in the party.  Add to that reality,  the forces supporting Elizabeth Warren and, again,  Bernie Sanders,  and you have enough political power to keep Hillary from running a third time.  

She has made it clear that she has no plans of "going away,"  anytime soon.  Last week,  her most poignant statement was,  "I will not be silenced."  She might as well said,  "And the rest of you can go to hell."  Don't think for a moment that she had in mind Donald Trump.  No,  she was focused on her own party.  

This book tour is Hillary trying to convince anyone who listens,  that she can beat Trump in a second effort.  She sees the crowds and record book sales,  as convincing evidence that she is more than a viable candidate.  

Lets just hope she keeps on keeping on.
