I will vote for Joe Biden and I want desperately for him to win. But for establishment Democrats to talk as though that will fix everything or as though Dems haven’t enabled the emergence of this horrifying authoritarian wave, will neither solve the problem nor even help him win.

I will vote for Joe Biden also. But I hold no fantasy that he will fix it all. Let’s put blame aside and recognize that a government designed for 3 million people in horse and buggy days cannot possibly function properly with 330 million of us, a world economy, and big data!

I have so much respect for you. I’ve never voted democrat but would have if you or tulsi or bernie were on the ballot. That being said, I don’t think Biden has a chance and I’m glad. We need real change, not more of the same manipulation that got us to where we are right now.

They have actively and fiercely fought the progressive movement, cheating and using all resources. Not even close to the energy they put in defeating Trump. Just look at @JoeBiden new slogan!!!

Marianne, I agree.Those who know history realize "We the People" must continuously monitor & act to challenge & correct the mistakes, injustices, and dishonesty of ALL political parties and politicians. None are perfect & none will ever be perfect. Democracy depends on us.
