Move Biden left in 2020 became just take Biden again 2024. I will keep the language US centric. Democrats are surprised they are losing progressives by appeasing conservatives and moderates. A better progressive option is Jill Stein or Dr. Cornel West. Would be surprising for a coalition between Democrats and Greens.
Progressives are concentrated in states that are going to vote blue no matter who. Democrats already win the popular vote because of these states, but lose in the electoral college, specifically because they ignore the swing states and the red states.
Go look at every living Democrat who has won an election in a red state. Those are the candidates who can poach voters from Trump’s base and win the election. One of those candidates is your nominee.
Sanders or West would be better candidates. I admit ignorance on Stein’s relation to Putin. I mentioned her since she is the Green Party candidate.
What are Biden’s progressive accomplishments? I remain unconvinced Biden is left or progressive. I hope you can help me see my shortcomings.
The best of the Biden Administration’s work has been coalition building for Ukraine. That work is fatigued by support for Gaza. Support for suppression of student protests is not progressive. Infrastructure seems to be a corporate bailout. Handling of COVID was roughly the same as under Trump. Waiting for pandemic fatigue and the virus to become endemic ended the War on COVID. Wages are not keeping up with cost of living. I am against gun control, so that failure is fine.
Swing state voters decide elections. Since I am not one, voting against Biden is not equivalent to voting for Trump. My vote will not swing the outcome in my state.

The same Jill Stein that attended a dinner with Putin and Michael Flynn? That Jill Stein?
That’s informative. I haven’t paid much attention to her. I know she is the Green Party candidate.
