There have been doubts over President Joe Biden\u2019s mental acuity for quite some time. But his performance in the recent Presidential debate seems to have come as a shock to many, and especially to Biden\u2019s support base. Almost the entire American liberal establishment, has called on Biden to step back and allow someone else get the Presidential ticket.\nIs he likely to stay the course, or will he make way for someone else? With the Democratic National Convention coming up next month, what are the options for the Democrats? Can they convince donors and voters that a President well past his cognitive prime is a good idea? And if Biden does step back, which are the names that have a good chance of winning against Donald Trump?\n\nGuest: Sanjay Ruparelia, Associate Professor of Politics and Public Administration, who holds the Jarislowsky Democracy Chair at Toronto Metropolitan University.\xa0\nHost: G. Sampath, Social Affairs editor, The Hindu\nEdited by Sharmada Venkatasubramanian.
