what are you seeing in terms of on-line support for Joe Biden?

32. Sadly on Facebook I saw two former Dem Party Central Committee members saying they'll vote 3rd party

which is very disturbing.

One is an Iraqi American who says he can't forgive Biden's support of the Iraq War under Bush.

The other is a Latino-Native American man and marijuana activist (who has used cannabis to treat burns he suffered in a wiildfire). He says he can't support Biden as a minority and because of his opposition to cannabis legalization.

Both think that since California will vote blue no matter what they can afford to throw their votes away, but I am concerned that such talk on social media can be read nationwide and potentially influence votes in states close enough to matter.

I've seen decline--to-state voters also saying they are disgusted at Biden for not supporting healthcare for all especially now with the pandemic - people who lost healthcare due to losing jobs but also older folks not ready for Medicare who can't afford their premiums anymore.

So yes Biden has a big PR problem. He really needs to pick a progressive minority woman as VP and abandon his opposition to a Medicare for All policy - at least say he'd support if we could find a way to pay for it.

I wonder how much we are saving by not deploying troops right now? Imagine if we just cut some less essential military expenditures long term and paid for healthcare instead.
