        Someone winning an election once and then being in power for the rest of their life.

        What do we call that again

          Wut. Are you implying that Harris will change the 4 year presidential cycle?

        I didn’t vote for either in my primary. I chose any other Democrat, like many other people.

        We don’t need another DA/Prosecutor or proponent of prison slavery and ignorer of Police Brutality as President. She was against the Israeli War before this, I wonder if that position will change now.

        Kamala Harris lost badly in the 2020 Primary, so putting everything on her will not do well for us.

          If you didn’t just vote for her in 2024 then you were never a Biden/Harris voter to begin with, so I’m not really too concerned with your opinion on the matter.

          • I don’t understand your comment. Are you literally telling another Democrat that because they didn’t vote for a Biden/Harris ticket in the Democratic party primaries that their opinion does not matter?

            I hope that I am misreading it this.

              I’m not a Democrat. I don’t care if they are either. But if they didn’t vote for them in the primary, then clearly, they aren’t Biden/Harris supporters anyway. That’s really all I’m saying here.

      There already was one. No one but Biden showed up.

      And no Jill Stein and your buddy Cornel West are still not viable.

      Are you going to flip to bitching about Harris all the time? Most of us know the real reason you’re here even though you won’t admit it.

      This is going to be another talking point “but DiD yOU eLecT her???” When in truth only 2% of the US population votes in the primaries

      How feasible do you think it is to go down that route right now?

        Plenty. There’s MONTHS before the actual election.

        No other country in the world has “election seasons” lasting an entire year.

      Can’t do a primary. There’s no time. We only have enough time for a coronation followed by a bunch of people screaming “Vote Blue No Matter Who!”

        I’ve always been fascinated with written correspondence between regular people in early 19th century Germany before the nazis took over, and how the ignorance and delusion of everyday people became the paved road that led hitler to power.

        A lot of them sound exactly like yours.

        It’s not a coronation. You can still vote for Trump, if you think he’s the better choice.

        You have to admit, Joe senility was apparent at the debate.
