Incumbent politicians have multiple advantages, but if you don't want them then the choice is to vote for their opponent or not vote, which really is the same thing.

    That seems really anti-democracy. If an incumbent performs poorly or breaks promises there should be mechanisms for people to ask to select another candidate to represent them.

    There is, it's called "voting". But you aren't just going to remove someone as a candidate because you don't like them, that's undemocratic.

    But didn't you just say they can't vote for non-Biden democrats?

    I feel like either I completely misunderstood your initial comment about Presidents having so much power, or else you're misunderstanding what I'm asking.
