His supporters just hear he's doing them daily and ASSUME he's being Presidential. Fox then feeds them BS about how effective he is...

His campaign ought to work to get skype or other set-ups working so he can talk with physicians, nurses, public health workers, patients in and out of the hospital, as well as local officials dealing with COVID-19. Let them tell their stories and what problems they are facing. These segments can be interactive with Biden, who then sums up with his plans. He can likewise have global public health experts available that HE can question as to what needs to be done and what deficiencies exist.

primary today, I would vote for:

Question:
1.how many of you have ever been to one his rallies?
2. Did you go to HRC rallies or president Obama?
3. If you didn’t were you any less enthusiastic about voting?

Come on! Stop with the negative posting! Haven’t we got enough on our plates??!!

We are all going to vote to get dotard out. Rallies, Shmallies

Good grief! A winning candidate should be able to turn supporters into a leaping weirdos alone in their own living rooms?

Dishonest media that need to sell newspapers always pretend enthusiasm that causes people to pour out in crowds is critically important, far more so than belief in the candidate and ability to win and come through on goals. And those who believe always end up bewildered by reality.

Anyway, grimness is a determined way of dealing with trouble. Those given to punching holes in walls have Trump or Sanders, or Gabbard, as alternatives.

Voting for elected officials is a civic duty. The narrative that you somehow need to be enthusiastic about who you vote for discourages people from voting. And I don't want to ever hear the phrase "lesser of two evils" in reference to a Democrat, ever.
