Every day Biden stays in the race is more damage. It’s either going to be Kamala or Newsom.

I wish he would back down and let Kamala run. That would get most of the minorities and women to vote right there. Have a match shock with shock, awe with shock and awe. The first black female president would be a huge deal, plus she is YOUNG, not some fossil like Biden or Trump. If not, I'm voting independent.

It's seems like it's only matter of time. 🤞 Hoping you reconsider that independent vote if it became relevant as that would be at best throwing the vote in the trash, but depending on where you live, potentially much worse.

Remember this: Our votes might seem important, but the truth is that money controls politics. The illusion of two parties and impartial courts might be thick and murky, but it's still just an illusion. I firmly believe that no matter who wins, nothing changes. History shows that the wealth division has grown since the Federal Reserve Act was set up. The parties and the president have changed every four years. Yet 10% own 75% of all economic value, leaving just 25% for 90% of America's population. It was not always this way, but it was allowed to become this way. The late George Carlin saw it. In his later years, his acts highlighted society's corruption and the abuse of power by the ultra-wealthy. It's frustrating to see how most people are blinded to this reality. No matter who is elected or the party in power, the situation doesn't improve for the majority, which is the complete opposite of democracy. Let's revisit this in four years.

I definitely understand/hear this perspective. I think the data around our aggregate progress is interesting to consider in light of this perspective as well. This is an older video so the data is not completely up to date but I think the overarching point holds and I’d imagine the overarching trends would continue to hold as well. https://youtu.be/yCm9Ng0bbEQ?si=h4Tx9Ct8rVEPeD_Z
