<p>CNN panelists appeared baffled by the certainty with which analyst <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/bakari-sellers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bakari Sellers</a> claimed that President <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> was likely to face a challenger going into the 2024 Democratic primary election.</p>
<p>While anchors <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/don-lemon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Don Lemon</a> and <a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/kaitlan-collins/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kaitlan Collins</a> seemed to agree with part of Sellers&#8217; assessment — namely that Biden might decide against taking on the rigors of another campaign — they were less convinced that the Democratic Party would push other serious contenders to the forefront if he was still running.</p>
<p><strong>WATCH:</strong></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Bakari Sellers says he thinks President Biden will have to go through primaries if he decides to run for reelection <a href="https://t.co/Mfs5sPiWkl">https://t.co/Mfs5sPiWkl</a> <a href="https://t.co/sjn8g6n9RC">pic.twitter.com/sjn8g6n9RC</a></p>
<p>&mdash; CNN (@CNN) <a href="https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1590724450911064065?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 10, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Noting that President Biden has not wavered from his initial claim — that he intends &#8220;to run&#8221; for re-election in 2024 — analyst Paul Begala added, &#8220;Why wouldn’t he? You have to ask somebody else, I think he&#8217;s doing a great job. I&#8217;m a – kind of a Biden guy, I like what he&#8217;s doing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Begala went on to say that there had been &#8220;a lot of emerging new stars&#8221; in the Democratic Party, however, suggesting that if Biden were to bow out, the party had enough depth to work around that.</p>
<p>&#8220;Why wouldn’t he is because of the toil of the campaign,&#8221; Sellers began, noting that COVID had actually taken away some of the typical campaign pressures because it allowed Biden to avoid a lot of the ground-game staples that previous and future campaigns would likely require. &#8220;I mean, the campaign is a monster in itself.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I’m not saying that he can’t do it,&#8221; Seller continued. &#8220;The question he has to answer is, does he want to go through that, and go through, you know, primary debates? Because he’s going to be primaried. That’s a fact. That, we’re new age Democrats. Now, I’m going to support him in that primary, but he’s going be …&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You think he’s going to get primaried?&#8221; Collins asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Of course!&#8221; Sellers was adamant.</p>
<p>&#8220;By a serious candidate?&#8221; Begala appeared unconvinced.</p>
<p>&#8220;Did Hillary Clinton get primaried?&#8221; Sellers offered.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hillary wasn’t an incumbent …&#8221; Begala protested.</p>
<p>&#8220;She wasn’t an incumbent president,&#8221; Collins agreed.</p>
<p>&#8220;It doesn’t even matter if the candidate is serious or not. There’s going to be somebody …&#8221; Sellers tried again.</p>
<p>Begala continued to push back, saying that former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton hadn&#8217;t been primaried when they were incumbent presidents.</p>
<p>&#8220;There’s going to be somebody, there’s going to be somebody,&#8221; Sellers insisted. &#8220;This is, this is not Bill Clinton or Barack Obama’s Democratic Party anymore. I wish it was. There are a lot of, there are a lot of us who are going to support Joe Biden.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;But who would primary him?&#8221; Collins pressed.</p>
<p>&#8220;I feel firm in the belief that he’ll get primaried from the Left,&#8221; Sellers said, arguing that Biden was likely to face a challenge from the far Left, from someone who felt that his policies had not gone far enough.</p>
<p>Sellers is not the only one exploring the possibility that the Democrats could put up a candidate who is not Joe Biden in 2024 — three weeks ahead of Tuesday&#8217;s midterms, The Washington Post put out a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/10/15/top-ten-democrats-2024-ranked/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">top-ten ranked list</a> of potential Democratic candidates — and while Biden was ranked first, the list also included Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Vice President Kamala Harris, California Governor Gavin Newsom, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).</p>
