    I support Biden not because he’s an anti-Trump, but because he’s a genuinely good man who gets things done. He knows how to work the system and gets results.

    As do I. The problem this time around though will be the number of younger independent and third party runners that might end up pulling votes from the “Biden is too old” crowd. And unfortunately, every vote not for Biden is a vote for Trump.

      Which is why we need ranked choice voting so we steal power away from this bipartisan system that robs us of our actual choice.

        system that robs us of our actual choice.

        Let’s cut out the middleman and go straight to direct voting.

        Although a president is one of the few positions that I think a country could actually use, even with direct voting. Just for diplomatic relations, cause we can’t all talk to the world leaders at once.
