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 it’s the law of the land, and they will stay on thereafter.

An eternal flame to counter the eternal shame of the “Poop Nazi”.

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

19. Biden campaign previews Jan. 6-focused speech with new TV ad
Thu Jan 4, 2024, 01:08 PM
Jan 2024

This is a great ad



https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/biden-campaign-previews-jan-6-focused-speech-new-tv-ad-rcna132137

As President Joe Biden prepares to deliver his first major re-election speech of 2024, marking the third anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, his warning about the fragility of America’s democracy will be front and center in the campaign's first ad to hit the airwaves this year.

The Biden campaign says the new 60-second spot highlights "the existential threat our country’s 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.”

and this ad is any indication of what he'll talk about, we should see his approval rating
go up and start beating Тяцмp in the election polls.

Personally, I would like to see the Republican Party as a whole more directly implicated in the potential loss of democracy. The American people don’t do nuance. But I don’t know anything about advertising and promotion.
