I love Pete. And Jamie Raskin!
Moskowitz makes me laugh. AOC and Crockett are two of my favourite Dem ladies.
There are some really good people in this horrible thing called politics.

I would add Chris Murphy, Beto, Cory Booker, Michelle & Barack Obama and Josh Shapiro to your list. I am grateful that the Democrats had a deep bench for choosing a VP candidate. |

My 93 year old dad LOVES Michelle Obama and kept telling me she was running for President this year and I had to tell him that she wasn't. I would love it if she would get into politics some day but I think she's had her fill of the system! |

I am watching in pieces but the Jill stein voter who is into the environment was really frustrating. She is knowledgeable about some things but was missing the biggest point—that Stein won’t win. She says that she isn’t for Trump and doesn’t want to consider his policies. But if she doesn’t vote for Harris and Trump wins, her vote was for Trump.

There were a couple young guys who complained about the 2 party system. I get it, but voting 3rd party doesn't accomplish anything but basically counts as a vote for Trump. The race comes down to Trump or Harris. If she cares about the environment , there's really only one choice. A big part of the problem is the current Republican Party. If Trump loses and they can ditch MAGA, the party might be functional again. John Oliver makes a pretty convincing argument against voting 3rd party. His solution makes a lot more sense, especially if you live in a swing state. Vote for the better person and then push them to do what you want John Oliver |

Every time I listen to Pete I love him more. He just is always so calm and respectful and knowledgeable about everything. I hope I get to see him as president in my lifetime. He is always the voice of reason.

Vote 3rd party - down ballot where you can make strides
But Perot proved that without major changes to our system a 3rd party candidate can not win the presidential election.
Maybe if one party completely collapsed there would be room for a third party. But that hasn’t happened.
Yes, I’ve posted a 3rd party vote in the past, back when neither side was a catastrophe. ( Perot actually though I’m not sure why his policies were as nonsensical as trumps are. I guess I just thought it could break the system- it didn’t )

He will be President one day. He is so smart. He is so articulate. He is everything a leader should be.

Or 3rd party in a state that is solidly blue like NY or CA. Or 3rd party in a primary with only 1 choice. 3rd party in a swing state like Michigan is just a vote for Trump
