I think the progressives supporting Biden is to protect themselves from being scapegoats like in 2016. If Biden does step down it’s not going to be because the Progressives asked him to. It’s going to be because other elder statesmen pressure him to. Honestly seems like a win win situation for the squad. If Biden loses it’s his fault for not passing the torch and if he wins the squad backed him and showed unity.

Ali's position is maddening. If he believes voters will show up to save Democracy REGARDLESS of the ticket, why does he think it's a mistake to change the ticket??

@@missx147 I don't think either Democrats or Republicans will ever do anything like guaranteed housing, healthcare, education, income, or employment type policies until we make them. Both parties are beholden to corporations and economic elites. It'd be a lot harder and more expensive for companies to get people to work most crappy jobs if we weren't worried about starving to death or becoming homeless. As long as we're desperate, the wealthy owner class can pay us less and keep more for themselves. Most politicians are millionaires and part of the owner class and/or get donations from them. They use culture war stuff to get votes for one party or the other (equal rights are definitely important) but they use that stuff so they can basically ignore stuff like guaranteed housing, healthcare, etc. Unfortunately, the same owner class also owns all the newspapers, TV news channels, and almost everywhere else we get information, so they make sure to never talk about any of this. Search for this paper written by researchers from Princeton, basically it shows how politicians only care about rich people, it's called _Testing Theories of American Politics: Elites, Interest Groups, and Average Citizens_ I think it's going to take a revolution to fix things, some people don't. I hope I'm wrong, but looking at all the violence and suffering the owner class is already using against working people, I don't think they're going to stop until we make them stop. Workers already do all the jobs that keep the world going. It's time we had a say deciding what all our labor is meant to be accomplishing. Guaranteed, housing, healthcare, and education for everyone. Nobody's gonna give it to us tho, we have to take it. Solidarity forever ✊

He also seem to be resided in a fact that he would adhere to adverse medical diagnosis. On the other hand he's running against the Antichrist

I definitely don't see all this strong black support for Biden-Harris here in MA. The older black people who always vote for the Democrat are still going to do so. As for the rest of us, I don't know. Some people are probably ok with voting for a replacement. Others are disenfranchised and over the whole stupid red vs. blue team sports nonsense. A few ashy people are gonna vote for Trump, and some might go 3rd party. One thing I think is good is if the liberals get less of the black vote, they might finally stop taking it for granted.

That’s AOC’s nominee, not mine! She needs to stop using the word OUR. We’re not a cult!

It’s shocking he is still backing Biden. From all of his past interviews I never would have guessed this would be his view.

Undecided voters won't have any trust in the media if he steps down now. I think we are seriously underestimating how hard it will be to get traction with another candidate regardless of how well they speak.

You guys do realize that in the majority of states electors are not bound by law to vote for the candidate who wins the state. That means in most of the states your presidential vote is just a recommendation that's it. Every other vote for congress and senate matter but not the presidential vote in the majority of states.

Every election for the last century has had at least one challenge to the vote count. It is completely ignored because the challenge has to be supported by a second house member and then the senate member for the same state. The democratic convention Primary happening in two weeks has the exact same function. The members from each state are expected to act in what day they believe the will of the people of their state are... And no it is not a specific requirement to follow the primary election. If joe continues the way that he has, The primary delegates in the convention can vote for anyone.

What is the alternative? You're not finishing the sentence. It's too late for him to leave and then we figure it out. Dems do this every effing time. Joe knows his shit. Stop this

It takes courage to stand up to The President, especially when he's not mentally all there and will respond with excessive and out of control anger. He needs to see him leaving is what is needed to save the country.

Solomon is so accurate!!

Thank you for this good-faith debate. Thank you, Norman, for winning it with an exemplary and crucial argument.

As an international observer, I think much more than worrying about who would win the presidential campaign and elections 4 months from now... Americans should seriously concentrate their efforts and concerns on whom will be a suitable and fit president to lead them as a nation for another 4 years. That, including the prospective candidate's global perspective, international views (& alliances) and foreign policy and what impact they would potentially have on the future of the American people - whom should be top priority and at the centre of all this debate - all things considered.

I don't know, pal, but I would not consider Al Franken to be some "random white person." That said, I still think Joe should stay the course.

It’s crazy, but trying to help people with mental health issues actually goes like this in a lot of states. You can’t just make a claim against someone and expect the government to do anything. They usually ask the person affected if they want help. If they can speak a few sentences and reject help, it’s going to be a difficult journey. Same with Biden, he thinks he’s great.

The world lives under the threat of NATO as the front for the military industrial complex, while US domestic policy suffers (health care, education, housing, cost of living, criminal justice system, homelessness etc). As an outsider (Canadian), it seems to me that the impending election agenda ignores what US citizens need versus the war monger goals of both the Republican and Democratic Parties.
