Democrats become even more radical as Joe Biden prepares to jump into the 2020 race.

Ilhan Omar, another fresh face, so much freshness and faceness, resets her anti-Semitism clock

back to zero, and we check the mailbag. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

Oh man, a million things to get to today. We're going to get to all of it. First, let's talk about Congress. Okay, Congress is full of people who don't know what the hell they're doing, but want to control your lives. And they also are not interested in circumscribing their own power, the way the Constitution was designed to do. But this is why we need to take control of Congress once again. And that's why I'm a big believer in calling a convention of states where we the people can propose amendments. Yes, amendments that could force term limits on Congress, for example, and make them ballots the budget. We've got to stop these idiots before it is too late because they obviously are not protective of their own power from the executive. And also, they don't care about limiting the power of the government at all. This is why we need to restore the checks and balances that the Constitution provided for originally but have been overridden by administrative government for the last century. Can you imagine the look on the faces of these Congress people when they realize that they have been circumscribed once again in their power by amendments to the Constitution? This is why calling a convention of states is the only way to get the job done. There are already 3.8 million people with us on this. More every day. Join me and my friend Mark Meckler. Go to Convention of States.com to sign the petition today. That's Convention of States.com slash Ben. I keep hearing from folks that Convention of States could become a runaway convention. That's not how the Article 5 Convention works. It still requires confirmation by two-thirds of the states. Thirty-eight states have to be there and they have to confirm it. So there's that. Also, people say, well, you know, amendments to the Constitution could hamstring Congress too much. Is that really what you're worried about at this point in time? Seriously? Conventionofstates.com

our list of candidates for the 2020 race for the Democratic side. Joining the race or about to join

the race is, of course, Joe Biden. We've pulled some theme music for Joe Biden since we have

theme music for everybody else. Here's some Joe Biden theme music. Yeah, so that guy, he's about

to join the 2020 race. According to the Hill, he is basically setting up all of his campaign

apparatus in New Hampshire, in South Carolina. According to the Hill, in recent weeks, the former vice president's long-time advisor, Steve Roshetti and Mike Donnellin, have led a string of meetings with potential aids to fill out the campaign if Biden makes a decision to enter the race, according to various sources. Whenever the VP makes a decision, we'll be ready to go, said one source with direct knowledge of the planning. Greg Schultz, who has run Biden's pack American possibilities and served as his political director in the White House,

is expected to be the campaign manager. Apparently, Mike Donnellon, is expected to play the

role of chief strategist. Kate Bettingfield, who was Biden's communications director in the White

House, is also expected to run his communications shop. Longtime advisors

have been talking to other Biden alumni for other press jobs. Now, if Biden doesn't get Barack

Obama's endorsement, he's going to have a bit of a rough ride here because he is outflanked

on his left by Bernie Sanders and he is outflanked on the intersectional side by Kamala Harris.

So the early polls that have him up, I've been around through several presidential

election cycles with open primaries. And what you see is that very often the person with the highest

name recognition leads initially and then immediately falls away as soon as the competition

actually begins. Biden does not have a massive lead in places like New Hampshire. He's up like 26, 22 on

Bernie Sanders in some of the polling, or he to declare he might jump to 30, but by no means is Biden

the prohibitive frontrunner inside the Democratic Party. And he knows this, which is why Biden is
