Joe Biden's speech in North Carolina is a barn burner

[Awsi Dooger]

9. Biden needs to take that energy to the final debate

He has fantastic energy when he's mad, and also the verbal pauses don't happen. For whatever reason he has less trouble summoning words and speaks more fluidly. That's why I always root for Biden to keep up the high decibel high energy.

My only bother in this speech is I wish Biden had devoted a minute or so to the Hispanic community in North Carolina. That is a huge struggle to get that vote to turn out. There has been one related article all year. Coronavirus has curtailed the door to door and personal contact that Hispanics prefer. North Carolina is particularly problematic because the Hispanic population is the youngest in the country with median age 25. Biden needs the Hispanic percentage of the electorate to reach 4-5%. So far it is a pathetic 1.9% in the early vote. That's why I was surprised nobody on staff tipped him to that and emphasized the need to motivate that demographic.
