The donor class is still pushing to eliminate Biden, despite his successful NATO visit. They’re bound and determined to send us back to 1968 & 72 and the electoral bloodbath that led us to 2 terms of Nixon.
There is NO time for ANY other campaign, even a Harris campaign to succeed at this late stage.
Between the FEC fundraising rules; the massive legal fight the Heritage Foundation is already planning to launch to prevent any new candidate from getting on the ballot in swing states; the corrupt Supreme Court, who will absolutely find a pretext to keep the new candidate off the ballot; the impossibility of hiring thousands of campaign workers across the country (with background checks); and stumping in all the necessary cities JUST to get sufficient name recognition (no, most people do NOT know who the Vice President is, never mind ANY other potential candidate), it’s just not feasible.
There are 14 weeks. We are supposed to be finishing up voter ID and starting GOTV work, not starting a new campaign from scratch in a hostile environment, where there’s no guarantee THIS court will even let them HAVE access to the ballot.
It’s time to make our Congressional delegations’ phones ring off the hook — they need to STOP this anti-Biden nonsense NOW.
For the House, go here:
https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative
Enter your zip code, press the button and CALL. It takes less than 1 minute to call and tell the nice person on the phone, “I want the Representative to support President Biden’s Candidacy.”
That’s it. Polite, Clear, Concise. No effort, almost no time.
For the Senate, go here:
https://www.senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm
Choose your state from the dropdown. There will be 2. Call each Senator’s office. Tell the nice person who answers, “I want the Senator to support President Biden’s Candidacy.”
Each will probably ask for your name and address (that’s why the call will take closer to a minute, instead of 10 seconds), so they can make sure you’re a constituent. The person answering is generally a nice young person, feeling all idealistic about doing their part, so really do be nice. It’s not their fault the party leadership is having a media-frenzy-induced meltdown.
The leadership claims that they’re hearing from constituents.
I guarantee you they’re not hearing from many of them. They’re mostly hearing from big dollar donors. Let’s show them what it’s like to ACTUALLY hear from constituents. It’s time for action.
Biden has our backs, it’s time for us to have his.
