    Do Biden's policies pass the sniff test? Did Obama's?

    Differently than their way against their own? Don Diego, say it ain't so, that we learned it wrong at the get-go!

    Liberals don't expect very much from Black people, except their votes. "If your Black you get a pass," in schoolwork, in job performance and everything else.

    So say liberals.

    The bigotry of low expectations guarantees lower standards (and funding) than white schools, and when indifferent administrators and teaching staff consider themselves zookeepers. I cite the film The Blackboard Jungle. Very powerful stuff and timely still today. It was set in New York, bastion of liberal orthodoxy.

    Nothing changed in city schools. Democrats were involved.

    But I strongly disagree that the Donks don't expect anything out of their plantation inhabitants. The Donks want black votes. Donald Trump is draining that away DESPITE this present fracas. The number of top SMART blacks in his administration are not told in Dem-run newspapers, unless it's Uncle Tom and Acting White. The moral is read outside viewpoints. The pain is educational. The reality is a weapon.

    Trump wasn't and isn't qualified still won. So much for qualifications.

    Silly and wrong to claim that all those Democrats do not believe that there is such a thing as a gender is the same as saying that all Trump fans are racists. Two wrongs to not make one right.

    Depends where you sniff. SERIOUSLY we all know that Trump's policies inhale air vigorously.

    God help America if ANY Democrat wins.

    Their TOP priorities will include

    1). Revoke the 2nd Amendment - Most blue states have already accomplished this.
    2). Confiscate personal firearms (all) - anyone who says this isn't true cannot be trusted
    3). Appease China - even if it damages America - because all the right Dems will get stupid wealthy (all that matters)
    4). Give enough free stuff to blacks to shut them the hell up
    5). Richly rewarding the banking system (as always)
    6). Clean up the Supreme court and circuit courts - Remove all non-Leftist (they are all illegally seated or criminal) judges that might vote conservatively.

    That may or may not be right. Now 2020 is a referendum on Trump. Whether the people have approved or disapproved how he has handled his presidency. Not so much on Joe Biden or the Democrats. I actually have come to the conclusion for many Americans politics, issues, political ideology, philosophy has taken a back seat to the antics and the very unpresidential behavior of Trump. Do they want four more years of the schoolyard bully or someone else politics notwithstanding.

    We'll see, but the early indications are giving a very good hint among independents that this is the case. Still a long time to go before November, but I'm watching independents very closely. I'm not paying any attention to Republicans and Democrats, they're very readable. Can Trump win independents again this year, I have my doubts. It's not so much they'll vote for Biden as against the very rude behavior of Trump. we'll see.

    Wasn't qualified? But he won anyway. Because America was tired of eight years under the worthless Gun-to-a-Knifefight loudmouth. Affordable Care? It isn't. Obama lied. Democrats and politically naive people elected an anti-American pile of trash who did everything he could to wreck our nation. His obvious affinity for Islam (even going so far as to praise that strangled gargle they scream over loudspeakers) made him totally unlike the mainstream he so openly looked down on.

    Now that life is returning to somewhat normal, we'll see the real Americans come out to support what's right. Trump rallies will become so frightening in size to the left that panicked leftist governors will call out National Guard in fear of their very worthless lives.

    Those crowds were told to shut up and stay home. Not again this election year when GOP candidates deserve campaign time. Demo-criminals will have already spent that time packing reserve mail-in ballots into their car trunks ahead of the November blowout. Honesty never matters in Democrat politics. It's winning that matters, not how it's done. THEN they sometimes tell the truth, but by then it's usually too late. "Affordable" care? Gunpoint robbery.

    The lockdown is ending and we the lied-to will not be fooled again. We will NOT support what is wrong, and Democrats by their silence over riots are WRONG.

    If you would, please tell us what qualifications Barack O-game-us possessed (besides his loud lying mouth) when won a Nobel Peace Prize after mere DAYS in office?

    Which party supports policies to get rid of gender in the public square? Which party has passed such policies?

    And who gave them the power to do that? Perhaps not all Democrats but an overwhelming number of them. This IS the Democrat party today. Look at what they promise to do to this country if we vote them in.

    Democrats want to make a real message here. Rich white guy hires affirmative action VP to 1) show dominance over said female minority choice, and 2) one again reassert the pecking order in the Democratic party.

    Is that because the options listed don't have no pecker?

    And since when - except the very recent past - have we had any other choice than white?

    What are you talking about blacks run for all sorts of offices in every election, my predominately white city elected a very popular black mayor TWICE, when was the last time a predominately black city voted for a white mayor. I voted for a black man for Senator. A black man won the Presidency.

    You avoid the question

    So it's OK for black's to vote based on race but not OK for whites?

    I don't respect anyone who votes based upon colour only. Period. But I can see why Black folks might feel as though their interests would be better represented by a black leader. Perhaps they experienced the same problems that the voters have - and something that white folks can only imagine.

    Of course they feel that way and it's true. Black power tends to lean Black on issues which is why whites generally vote white and Hispanics generally vote Hispanic. Whatcha wanta bet Islamists do the same? Bias is only bad when it doesn't favor ME!

    Perhaps both more melanin and female. I think that about gets to the heart of the democratic party position.

    Well then don't respect Biden and his supporters who are basing it on race. Do you see why White folks might feel as though their interests would be better represented by a White leader. What problems that white folk can't imagine that their race would have anything to do with solving? Crime in the black community? Fatherless children in the black community? Lack of educational achievement in the black community? Seems to me the so called black leaders have totally failed in those areas. The case could be made they need white leaders and to emulate the white communities more, agree or disagree?

    Harris turned off even Democrat voters.

    If a white leader could bring true equity to the black community, then sure. And if they could convey that message with concrete and strategic plans, I think they'd get the black vote.
