Need some help with pro-Biden Letters to the Editor for Los Angeles Times...

They will print a representative sample, but if they don't get anything, that leaves the other side with all the space.

There have been some Op-Eds saying Joe appears to be doing the right thing in his campaign given the circumstances -- always nice to be noticed, right?

However, these have each been promptly followed by a slew of letters from very critical people claiming Joe Biden is nowhere to be seen and is hiding in his basement. In fact, it is hard to tell which side the letters are coming from (i.e. Independent or GOP) -- just that they clearly have only one message: Biden is missing in action, incompetent, over the hill, and we certainly don't want him.

I hope that some DUers will feel moved to keep an eye out on the Editorial and Op-Ed pages of the LA Times, and drop them an LTTE in support of Biden from time to time, so that our positive voices are heard.

Thank you.

I anticipate this will still go on despite Sanders having dropped out.

Most people don't think of that when they're complaining and "claiming Joe Biden is nowhere to be seen and is hiding in his basement". I know sometimes I have to remind myself of that so I understand. But, damn.

I hope Bloomberg meant it when he said he would continue with a campaign against the maggot and to support our ultimate nominee once she/he was chosen.

That time is now. Joe Biden has been chosen! Bring it, Bloomberg! Bring it!
