@DCGoldPants Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 The Biden statement is strong. The Dems should record him and various Dems of all colors, ages, etc reading a statement like that which is edited together into a single video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Biden should ask the networks to let him give a Presidential address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 8 minutes ago, PleaseBlitz said: Biden should ask the networks to let him give a Presidential address. I've been wondering about that. The notion of Biden pulling an "If I were President, this is the address I'd give" thing. I can see drawbacks. For example, in times like these, should a challenger politician really be trying to draw divisions? Maybe the smartest thing for Biden to say would be "In these times, I shouldn't be trying to divide us. That's Trump's thing." But I would love the notion of the voters looking at Biden's video, and whatever tweets Trump puts out, and comparing the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your points, and they are good, but if Trump is unwilling to do a very basic duty of the President, somebody should. If Trump's rhetoric is going to be divisive, and it has been, someone should push a message of unity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus T Firefly Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 He doesn't need to sow divisions or act like he's President. Give a heartfelt speech on the need for unity, the need for calm. Talk about plans for police reform (which were undone by the Trump administration), talk about steps that can be taken to begin to address systematic racism, denounce the kinds of monstrous "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" rhetoric you know who uses. Just speak to the country and especially those who are angry or hurting. Don't make it specifically a campaign address. The differences with Trump can be implied more than explicit. There is no need to worry about a backlash if it's done correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 That's exactly what I mean, but he should ask the networks to all carry it live. FoxNews won't, but the rest would probably carry a major speech by the nominee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Obama said that in his first term, would he of gotten a second? Michelle would've broken his arm and that'd be the rumor why he's in the hospital while his presidency came apart. This doesn't even register on the Richter Scale for Trump because the tectonic plates are already doing jumping jacks, no way in hell a POTUS should be talking like that, us electing him anyway...dude had so many red flags sticking out his body it looked like acupuncture.

88Comrade2000 Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 Moderate Joe is dead. Say, Hello to the new F.D.R.?? Joe Biden, the Moderate, Plans the Most Radical Economic Overhaul Since FDR >>>In late April, as COVID-19 panicked the nation and all but paralyzed his campaign, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. huddled—virtually, of course—with his team of economic advisers. Being stuck running for the presidency from the basement of his home in Wilmington, Delaware, had given the former vice president a lot of time to think, he told them, and he wanted bigger ideas. Go forth, he urged his financial brain trust, and bring back the boldest, most ambitious proposals they'd ever dreamed of to reshape the U.S. economy, with an eye toward making it more fair for all Americans and less easily unhinged by a future crisis like the coronavirus pandemic. Should he unseat Donald Trump in the November election, the challenge before him would be at least on par with what Franklin Delano Roosevelt contended with when he came to power in 1933. Biden wanted FDR-sized solutions...........<<< I don't know if promising to be the new F.D.R. will get him elected. My gut says, it may have the opposite effect.

Yeah, I dunno if making that claim works, politically. OTOH, if you assume that you're going to inherit an economy that's as bad as FDR inherited, maybe it's What The Country Needs.
