Theory on Biden: Why now? Biden represents the "old" democrat party (as well as being old physically). The new (and younger) members of the demoncrat party who are, most importantly, openly socialist have taken over. Hillary got the memo last year hence she is not running again. Biden should have gotten the same memo when the wealthy donors told him they would not raise money for him. He didn't and so the backup plan to eliminate him is now in effect. Expect more accusations until he "gets it". The socialist wing tried to prevent Pelosi from getting speakership but found out just how powerful she is with a backhand in the face. Look for them to recover in 2020 to eliminate her. The power of this new socialist democrat party should not be taken lightly or brushed aside as "too radical" for the American people. Their plan resonates with many and they will stop at nothing (with the help of WW socialis (UN) and Soros money) to continue Obama's transformation of America.
