**Munk Debate members can vote on who they think won the debate at www.munkdebates.com** Joe Biden’s disastrous performance in his debate against Donald Trump has convinced leading Democrats that Joe Biden cannot be their nominee in November. There are now too many voters concerned about Biden’s age and mental fitness for him to win. A younger, more dynamic candidate would redirect the conversation towards central policy questions and offer a viable alternative to Trump. Furthermore, even if by some miracle Joe Biden did win in November, he has proved himself to be incapable and unfit for office. But there are others who argue replacing Biden would be a huge mistake that Democrats would come to regret. They say polling still shows Biden to be the party’s strongest candidate. The messy process of choosing a new nominee would take precious time and resources away from the campaign. And there’s always the risk that a new, untested nominee would stumble on the national stage. A ticket without Joe Biden will all but guarantee a Trump victory. Arguing in favour of the resolution is Mona Charen. Mona is a syndicated columnist and policy editor at The Bulwark and the host of the podcast Beg to Differ. Arguing against the resolution is Allan Lichtman. Allan is a Distinguished Professor of History at American University and the author of Predicting the Next President: The Keys to the White House.
