A common denominator I find among many who are angry at me for daring to challenge the accepted narrative and primary the president, is that they themselves have healthcare, neither they nor their children are shackled by college loan debt, they can afford to send their kids to college, and neither they nor their children are hungry.

“62 million workers are making less than a living wage and there’s no place in this country where if you’re working minimum wage you can afford a two-bedroom apartment. Poverty, of which poor people of color have the highest concentration, but poor white people have the highest numbers. Last time, 26 debates aired on TV. 140 million people in poverty. 43.5% of the country. Not one single debate focused on poverty. Not one. Why do you suppose that the way that the Democratic debate is structured is so fixated on the middle class? Which is important, obviously, but if 140 million people out of 326 million people are poor or low income, why isn’t that a top of mind issue in the Democratic Party?” —Poor People’s Campaign in 2020 After MLK realized poor white people outnumbered poor black people nationally, he evolved to a multi-racial, humanitarian-first movement to unite the poor as one and a #UBI

Not angry at you - no need to get worked up for nothing - but it does seem odd you seem to think that Biden hasn't taken action regarding broadening healthcare access, ending college debt, food insecurity, lowering the cost of college...maybe some broader awareness on your part?

Do you have any type of data or statistics to back up any of what you are saying? Also do you have any data to prove that these voters don’t have empathy even though they don’t experience those things? Those are some strong accusations and innuendos to be throwing around.

That's the "all liberals are rich white people who live in gated communities" narrative, and it's every bit as racist coming from the left as it is when it comes from the right.

No..you're unqualified and problematic. You have zero chance of winning and you're a grifter

#Bigtruths hurt those who are concerned only for themselves and very little for others.

The only runner that hasn’t inappropriately bashed others on national television and has great values in order to better this county. Cancel the willow project, make affordable healthcare, save the lower AND middle class before we’re completely dominated by the rich, Tax the rich
