Deep dives
Biden not on the New Hampshire ballot
Joe Biden is not on the ballot in New Hampshire as the Democratic National Committee stripped the state of its delegates. Activists are staging a write-in campaign for him, although it is a challenging proposition. The move by the DNC has created tension between the state party and the national organization.
Possible scenarios for Democrats
Speculation suggests that Joe Biden may drop out of the race due to health issues, potentially around Super Tuesday. This would open the door for an open convention and the selection of a new candidate, such as Vice President Kamala Harris. Another possibility is Michelle Obama running for president, with Gavin Newsom as vice president. Kamala Harris could be offered a Supreme Court seat as an alternative.
Ron DeSantis exits the race
Ron DeSantis, who initially seemed to have potential as a MAGA candidate, has dropped out of the Republican primary. His campaign lacked a strong rationale and he struggled to gain traction. This leaves Nikki Haley as the next potential establishment favorite, although her chances of success may be diminishing.
The brilliance of the American system of government
The American system of government is lauded for its checks and balances, combining elements of a direct democracy, a constitutional representative republic, and a strong executive. It allows for adaptation and improvement over time. Although some aspects may be criticized, the system remains a masterpiece and the best form of government in the world.
