Black voters feel trapped in the duopoly but other groups are giving a master class in political courage. The Abandon Biden campaign shows the way.
A group of Muslim leaders in swing states are rightly using their electoral power with the #AbandonBiden campaign. They are not so frightened of a Trump presidency that they have allowed themselves to vote for the man who through his proxy Israel has killed some 24,000 people in Gaza and despite phony claims of “working behind the scenes” shows no inclination to change policy and save lives.
They’ve got the right idea — the place to get rid of the current administration is in the primaries. But putting forward an alternative would work better than going anti-Biden.
Because Trump already showed he would have done the same thing with gusto.
Get the country rallying behind a moderate but active and principled Democrat, and you’ve got a recipe for a great next 8 years.
