    I don’t think we need more prosecuters and law and order folks leading the US. For people who need access to their medications to live, we don’t need another person not understanding opiates to make life harder and threatening to put the doctors supporting Chronic Pain patients in jail.

    We don’t need another leader against the poor advocating for more prisons to keep slavery a viable business.

    We especially don’t need an insider who will follow all the rules of the neocon playback to be pushed on the party like a other Hillary. There are other women available to become president besides the first laser of the 2020 primary. She was the token black woman of Biden’s administration, to show minorities that he actually cares about them, instead of them remembering his crime bill and anti-integration stances.

    Just like Biden was used to show white people that Obama wasn’t a bad type of African American president.

    The only thing this may do is maybe lower the Israel issue and weapon sales. The DNC are fine with her because she supports the constant failure of Gun Control, Drug Controls, and keeping the poor poor. She won’t push a radical change against business leaders, push for inequality changes for workers, or stop legalized slavery.

    I really can’t support her. I would have voted for Biden, but now I can’t find any reason to vote for any presidential candidate.

      It feels like you’re lying when you claim you would’ve voted for Biden. Why would anyone believe you?

        I knew what to expect from Biden. Granted I wanted him to hold to his one term promise, which is why I didn’t vote for him during the Primary.

        VP’s don’t do much beyond supporting their president, so Kamala as VP wasn’t a big deal. Hey taking over, with her previous baggage of pro prison slavery and ignoring police brutality, is less of a slow Biden administration. So far there are rumors that she spends less time in Washington than GWB did as President, and will take plenty of breaks to recharge in LA. A President can’t be a part-time job, it ages a person.

        Also, why are you saying I’m lying when I was willing to follow the party for Biden? Wasn’t that what had been constantly preached to do for months to stop Trump?

        Just because I understand the difference between two radically different candidates doesn’t mean I’m now some unfaithful actor. Granted everyone is just lines on a screen. This isn’t a football game or boxing match, this is choosing someone who will decide the fate of all Americans for four years. Just because the Republicans chose a horrible evil candidate doesn’t mean the Democrats can keep stringing along the left with the same carrot hoping we all keep falling for their lies.

        Moving toward the right doesn’t work when the other side is a cult. So, why should the left side of the party keep following the DNC when they keep moving right? This is the third election where they want everyone to just fall in line, but the DNC isn’t a cult, so people should be free to voice opinions on the problems with a Candidate.

          I honestly think you’re a troll but I’m a sucker so I’ll bite.

          Kamala is far more left leaning than Biden I have no idea what you are talking about. She’s not perfect but she’s definitely better than Biden.

          And that’s not even bringing up the fact that the choice is her or someone who openly wants to be a dictator and already attempted a coup.

          You claiming you won’t vote kinda destroys any of the good faith you seem to intend to portray. It definitely makes you a bad faith actor.

          You’ve spent at least the last month saying you won’t vote for Biden. Your little

          Also, why are you saying I’m lying when I was willing to follow the party for Biden?

      Good enough for me. I’m not expecting her to bring in America’s golden age or anything.

      Free Palestine.
