@GaryMarcus So you in general agree with Biden's policies? I mean that is fair.

What would you say to convince someone that is 50/50 about what Harris/Trump propose to convince them to vote for Harris?

@ElliottChMiller Actually, congress writes the laws, she will merely sign some and veto others. but roughly speaking she seems in line with Biden who has for the most part done very well, and gotten the ship back on track.

I am not voting for Kamala
because she is partly of African descent
or because she is a woman

I am voting for her because she is decent human being
who cares about other people
and their human rights
and about democracy

and the other guy doesn’t.
