How do we get Americans informed about Biden's accomplishments?

[BigmanPigman]

I just came from lunch and this was discussed. It is the same old, same old...the Dems' accomplishments are not known to so many American voters. Dems get great stuff done decade after decade and many, many voters have no clue.

1. The Democrats IMO have always sucked on messaging. Accomplishments never seem to reach the public.

Some of it is, of course, the media in the US. Fox blasts 7x24, for example, in so many places. Most voters I come across are clueless ... and I think many people just do not bother to research unless it hits them in the nose.

2. Actually that is a republican talking point - They do not suck at messaging, the media sucks

at putting out the messaging. I really think billboards all over the country (and I mean all over), that are changed every month for the the next year and half showing Biden's wins and agenda compared to republicans.

9. Yes! "... the media sucks at putting out the messaging." n/t

6. Your post

contradicts it's self. So, do the DEMS suck at messaging or are most voters clueless and don't bother to research?

I'm going with the latter. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink! Who's fault is it when the horse dies of dehydration?

3. By informing them.

There are all kinds of ways: TV, billboards, mail,
texts, etc..... and of course all Dem politicians
talking about it all the time.

4. Accomplishments and societal benefits are far harder to sell than fear, hate and general

"the world is going to hell".

I don't think the Rs are any better at messaging when it comes to real and specific accomplishments or benefits to society as a whole than Democrats. Talk of "welfare queens", "lazy people living off your dime", "communists controlling your lives", and "economic catastrophe if we don't do something about the massive federal debt" is easy, effortless and plays readily into the goals of privatization, tax reductions (even though predominantly for the wealthy), and white male hegemony. And that's what the Rs are about.

How do we get Americans better informed seems a better, more basic question. One way would be to break up right-wing talk radio's near monopolistic dominance of airwaves. How do we do that? Bringing back the Fairness Doctrine would be a start.

JFK was successful in challenging tax benefits enjoyed by the local conservative radio stations that dominated America's airwaves in the 50s/early 60s. Stations dropped their right-wing talking heads in response. We probably don't have that tool today as radio stations are funded pretty much via advertising revenue. ... But there must be some things short of buying up all the stations that can be done to help remedy this. Frankly, I'm not convinced our party takes this seriously enough. Correct me if I'm wrong -- please!

5. Make it outrageous.

Biden fucking reduced the fucking deficit! HOW DARE HE!!!
Biden won't apologize for bringing unemployment way the fuck down to 3.5%, that asshole!

7. PERSONALLY TELLING NON- BELIEVERS THE TRUTH. (THEY TRUST YOU MORE THAN THE MEDIA.)..aslo:

TELL THE NON BELIEVERS WHY THIS IS THE TRUTH!.........................such as:.............

]TELLING NON BELIEVERS THAT THE SOURCES ARE TOTALLY HONEST AND RELIAABLE.
and also...........................................................................most important:

YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH..."YOU TRUST ME MORE THAN THE MEDIA, DON'T YOU. I DON'T LIE"..

.

......................................."SAY THOSE EXACT WORDS ABOVE IN QUOTATION MARKS"

THAT IS IT, AND THAT IS ALL OF IT. IF NON- BELIEVERS DON'T BELIEVE FRIENDS AND PEOPLE THEY REALLY TRUST,

....................................THEN,..... THEY WON'T BELIEVE ANYONE BUT THE RIGHT WING MEDIA!

8. With kind and simple 5th grade level sentences

Biden did (1,2,3 )

The GOP did (0)

Put in places that are free to view.

With a link to the corresponding Congressional voting record

make it easy for voters to check, who are you going to believe?

Fox or the Congressional record?

IMHO

10. Yes, this is a good point. Really dumbed down messaging helps. So simple on a glance it

shows the facts!!!

11. It has to be the media. The RW has FOX...what outlet do we have that will do this w24/7 like

FOX does for Trump and cult?
