As the Democratic Party stares at a crossroads concerning Joe Biden and its presidential ticket, two Democrats are proposing a unique solution: a blitz primary to identify a new nominee.
Rosa Brooks, a professor at the Georgetown University Law Center, devised a strategy to capitalize on the party’s precarious situation in the wake of Biden’s stumbling debate performance. She said she wants her fellow Democrats to know that “this crisis, like most crises, is also an opportunity.” Her work alongside Ted Dintersmith, a venture capitalist and education philanthropist, has offered a solution she said she thinks can unite the party around a new presidential nominee for the August Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
