Before you brush this topic off as irrelevant, you might want to consider how often it comes back into political discussions along with the lie that it was a war resolution rather than a peace resolution.
The next debate in September will winnow the field to 20 with 7 having already qualified for a place at the podiums.BidenBookerButtigiegHarrisRourkeSandersWarren The DNC Selection...
Nominating and electing a 77 year old man who will be 81 years old when it's time for re-election is not long term thinking. In 2024, Republicans will have the anti-incumbent momentum and likely, a younger and more energetic candidate. As bad as things are now, they could be even worse under a Repub (Don Jr. or Ivanka?) in 2025.
It's Night One of the 2nd Democratic debate and not only will there be so much for them to talk about, there will be so much for us to discuss about them! As usual, we are hosting a live chat to accompany the debate and both begin at 5:00pm PDT.
I like this DNC format. Substance, well delivered. In-depth snapshots of the nominees. The people, the people, the people.
I think that I can shed a little light on what happened in Iowa. And provide a solution or at least a framework for one.
Are the Moderate Democrats unaware that by being focused on praising and pandering to the "white working class"/"good people on both sides" crowd, they are insulting, taking for granted and alienating the very Democratic voters who are younger and African American that they need to actually win?
Biden and Harris should keep their thoughts on this sequestered. His advisers, Democratic Leadership, well-regarded jurists, historians, and experts on the U.S. Constitution will need to study the issue. Biden has addressed the matter previously saying that that the idea of balancing a seriously imbalanced court by adding seats is a dangerous precedent.
There is one person who could gum up the works of Trump's dictatorship-in-process. And he's not even in elected office. Yet. Joe Biden has said that this election is a battle for the very soul of America. So right now would be a good time for Biden to really flex on this, step up and fire a loud warning shot across the bow of Trump's henchmen. The Rule of Law is coming back in 2021...and it could be coming for them.
Democrats need to stop running against Trump, and instead run against Trump AND the Republican Party as well as Republican voters. That will sound harsh to most Democrats, but Trump is not the problem, merely a symptom of the problem.

It was quite energizing to be among thousands of my neighbors in this city who reflect how informed, creative, and principled they are. It was a real antidote to the ignorance, bigotry, and hateful cruelty that oozes every day from Trump and his MAGA cultists.

What is it about the psyche of a portion of the American people that leads them to believe they need someone to hate? It’s not that racial and gender hatred are exclusive to the United States; it’s a worldwide contagion.
