Biden loses American Samoa Democratic caucus
The Hill ^ | 03/05/24 | JULIA MUELLER

President Biden was projected to lose the Democratic primary in American Samoa to an obscure candidate in a surprising result that comes amid a string of Super Tuesday wins.

The race was called Tuesday night by Decision Desk HQ, who confirmed the results with the Democratic Party of American Samoa.

Democrat Jason Palmer, a entrepreneur running a long-shot bid against the incumbent, was projected to win the U.S. territory’s Democratic race. Palmer has reportedly qualified for the presidential ballot in just 16 states and territories, according to a release from the campaign through PRNewswire. Since American Samoa is a U.S. territory, it doesn’t have electoral votes in the general election — but it can still send 11 delegates to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) later this year. DDHQ estimates that so far Palmer has won 4 delegates and Biden 2.

Democrats far, far away from the swamp are beginning to have visions of blood in the water (well, Samoa is surrounded by an ocean full of sharks so they should know the signs).

Ha, Ha, Ha! Reminds me of when the Samoans went on the Price is Right - they made an impact then and they will make one now. Biden told a group of black North Carolinians today that he had attended and graduated from Delaware State College, an historically black university. It is odd that Senile’s resume shows that he graduated from the University of Delaware and did not attend Delaware State.

Samoa grows a lot of pro wrestlers but that's about it.

Note Trump didn’t dejectedly say “I see no viable way forward and I am dropping my campaign as of this evening.”

Remember in Doonesberry that American Samoa was where Duke left his job at Rolling Stone to become the governor of American Samoa, with Zonker as his lieutenant-governor.

Got him saved from the impossible situation of the dark night where a ship came alongside him in the water and Duke said “Throw down the dope and I’ll throw you the money.” And a man on a megaphone said “This is the United States Coast Guard.” Got immunity.

Note: “Hunter S. Thompson Hated Getting Caricatured as “Uncle Duke” in Garry Trudeau’s Doonesbury: ‘If I Ever Catch That Little Bastard, I’ll Tear His Lungs Out’”

Also:
Jack Thompson nicknamed “the Throwin’ Samoan”was an American Samoan football quarterback.
Thompson played in the NFL for six seasons, four with the Cincinnati Bengals and two with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Samoa is the source of Samoas cookies for the Girl Scouts. It’s of strategic importance.

There are a lot of Samoans (for their numbers) in the armed forces, too.

Biden don't care, he is sure Samoa is going to capsize before the 2024 election comes around.

“Biden don’t care, he is sure Samoa is going to capsize before the 2024 election comes around.”

Your statement is based on outdated information. Our new woke military made it a point to evenly distribute our troops and equipment throughout the islands so they do not tip over and capsize.

That's got a whiff of cultural appropriation.

Are Samoas made with real Samoans?
