(26,593 posts)I have kept a string of solar lights lit since Biden and Harris took office, for the
JOHN LEWIS VOTING RIGHTS ACT

to be passed, and they will stay on until its the law of the land, and they will stay on thereafter.
An eternal flame to counter the eternal shame of the Poop Nazi.

(12,786 posts)When the poop Nazi (thanks usonian for that great descriptor) does an ad, 3 words into it he lies.
Democracy is at stake.
But, remember when W got the Supreme Court to vote him in as president? I can see the poop Nazi doing that. We need to be prepared to fight it

The Biden campaign says the new 60-second spot highlights "the existential threat our countrys democracy faces from the MAGA extremism that now defines the Republican Party." It draws heavily from a prominent speech Biden made in Arizona last fall, when he said that the MAGA movement "does not share the basic beliefs in our democracy" and that it posed a threat to democratic institutions.
All of us are being asked right now: What will we do to maintain our democracy? Biden says in the ad, asking the American people to join him in this cause.
"History is watching. The world is watching. And most important, our children and grandchildren will hold us responsible," he says.
The ad also features remarks from a speech two years ago in Atlanta, where Biden said he and Vice President Kamala Harris have supported voting rights bills since Day 1 of this administration.

(2,600 posts)Personally, I would like to see the Republican Party as a whole more directly implicated in the potential loss of democracy. The American people dont do nuance. But I dont know anything about advertising and promotion.
