In 2004, I was a team leader for MOVE ON. I got an asthma attack by sitting outside the poll station in the snow, for the people whose homes I’d visited to confirm with me that they’d voted.

As a “resident alien”, I cannot vote but I seek to influence my adult children and friends to support whomsoever the Democrats select as their candidates.

I have to multiply the people I convince since I cannot vote in the USA.

Indeed! Thanks, Armand! I hope Hakeem runs for president in 2028 after he wins Speaker in 24. We need him and Schumer. And a new Pelosi who was one darn brilliant strategist.

Diane K24: You state convictions and core values that give one backbone to stand up.

We face hard times, and I shake at the prospect of November.

At a minimum, the Democrats have a compelling case against the House. The chaotic GOP House is an argument to elect a solidly Democratic House with Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker.

The Honorable Chuck Schumer needs a solid Senate behind him.

Biden's debate performance hurt us for the Fall, but Biden and we Democrats must remember the words of the orator, General Douglas MacArthur (with whom I disagree on almost everything else), words that the circa 12-year-old Armando heard MacArthur say on TV --

"There is no substitute for victory!"

Sadly it is not just the wealthy barons who reject the immigrants. It is more those citizens (many of us

part of the 140,000.000 poor and low income) who have been manipulated into fearing others, mistakenly believing this country has not enough GOOD jobs and free educational opportunity to go around.

Yes, amazing! They fool us that way here in the richest country IN THE WORLD.

It is how the political folk control "winning." And the only way to finally turn that around-- that plan dating back to Reagan's election when the Republican party needed the historically Southern Democrats' votes to win--is to join THE SWING VOTE at the polls.

to reunite people of all races, religions, sexual orientation, educational background, military service, responsibility for caring for our children/elderly (alone or with partners) in order to

fight for our right to REAL democracy

as described in our Declaration of Independence & Constitution.

Typically poor people and our youth have not been voting because none of our lawmakers are listening to their needs. Bring them to the polls and truly SWING the next elections.

Last Saturday 30,000 + (plus Watch Parties across the country) traveled in the heat to DC with 17 demands for our lawmakers and candidates

that American citizens and those seeking refuge here

require to make the true democracy of our forefathers' dreams and

design.

GO SWING VOTE!!

Thanks for this, Carole. The one thing that’s clear is that Trump will never care for any group except his sycophants. Our women and our youth can carry this election away from Trump. Spread the info about Project 2025 to your groups. 💙🎉💙

“ until we have politicians who love and work for all of us, “

Huh?

I know it sounds mushy, but I know there are many Joe Biden’s out there undiscovered. He cares about America’s Democracy—and that is what matters to me💙🇺🇸

What I believe is that Joe Biden is a good man. Trump is an evil man. Isn’t this what matters most is the upcoming election? Good VS Evil?

I think so! Will Christians see through the Trump lies at the voting booth, or will they continue to shut their eyes? Rather shocking that people are so silent and tolerant of evil in the name of being pro-life.

I've been so busy sending notes to pundits who call for Biden to step away from the candidacy (from our nomination, from our votes in the primary) that I should make a moment to send a note to those who are still in here stating the obvious - it's overkill, and what they're really killing is our chance to save democracy... except we won't let them. Thank you for your voice.
