What happens if the unity candidate is actually leading a movement of anger and revenge-minded partisans?
Joe Biden, the Democratic nominee for president, often casts the presidential race as a “battle for the soul of the nation,” which sounds great to a generation of Americans who grew up thinking “The West Wing” television show was closer to reality than “Veep.”
Biden thinks of himself as a modern-day Jed Bartlett, apparently, who can rise above today’s polarized politics and unite the country.

“Today, once again we are a house divided,” Biden said during a recent speech at Gettysburg. “But that, my friend, can no longer be. We are facing too many crises. We have too much work to do. We have too bright a future to leave it shipwrecked on the shoals of anger and hate and division.”
