It’s a weird experience travelling through Los Angeles by bus.  There’s 3-4 stops where all the shops, and everyone who gets on & off are Armenian, followed by 3-4 stops of Thailand, 3-4 stops of Guatemala etc etc.

Wow, that is some generalistic election ad that literally any candidate in history could use.

 

 

It's good enough for me. He doesn't have to show his personal character or political views. He just need to be normal, stable-minded and a typical moderate democrat. That's enough for him to win the vote, any further behavior is an another adventure.

Biden, more than any candidate in any election I have ever followed, is running on the message of being the most vanilla politician imaginable.

Although i don’t think he will be a good president, his “running line “ of being the most vanilla politician, is the reason his the democratic nominee in the first place, he is similar and different from trump at the same time

Actually he’d the Democratic nominee because the Dems used COVID as an excuse to cheat Bernie Sanders out of the win he’d earned on votes cast.

The primary was effectively over before COVID-19 became a major issue. Super Tuesday was a death blow to Sanders’ campaign.

Yeah, all the moderates and party officials consolidated under Biden in a last ditch effort to beat Sanders.
