Opposition to busing isn't opposition to integration; it's opposition to having your kid shipped across town to a sh*tty school in a ghetto.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

The only reason, why Biden has kept his lead in the polls is that all the other candidates are not going after one another, to force dropouts. They are focused only on Biden. With so many candidates in the race, splitting the vote, Biden will win

New megathread split from old one because it was getting to 2,000 posts.

Aww, thanks for making the first post of this new thread one of the ones where I actually look prescient.

(Thank you will be retroactively withdrawn if Biden surges again)

Brazil Mali Paraguay

Bizarre !!!

Going after Obama is silly. He's the most beloved figure within the Democratic Party (for a good reason).

I think that technically the US provided some assistance to the French campaign in Mali in 2012.

Brazil and Paraguay are a big for me, though.

Biden unveils health care plan: Affordable Care Act 2.0

Democratic front-runner Joe Biden today will unveil a health plan that’s intended to preserve the most popular parts of Obamacare — from Medicaid expansion to protections for patients with pre-existing conditions — and build on them with a new government-run public insurance option.

Biden would also empower Medicare to directly negotiate drug prices, allow the importation of prescription drugs from abroad and extend tax credits to help tens of millions of Americans buy lower-priced health insurance.

Although I prefer universal health care, this would be a significant improvement from where we are now. Neither will happen though if the GOP keeps the senate, regardless of who is prez from January 2021 onward. Biden is wrong by saying the GOP will return to normalcy after Trump is out. They will continue obstruction of any Dem prez until multiple and massive election losses happen.

It's not silly, he was a pretty bad President if you actually look at what he did and not just at the hype and rhetoric.

Is it much different to HRC's healthcare plan had she won in 2016?

They're both the same in that neither one has a chance in hell of making it through the Senate.

With the exception of seemingly no mention of Medicare at 55 (admittedly, though, I've only read the news articles about the plan rather than the actual plan itself), I don't think so, no.

I've also heard no mention of the Biden plan restoring the individual mandate, which I think would be a mistake to not restore.

It's silly in the context of being a Democratic presidential candidate, since the voters you need to win over in order to successfully become the nominee (let alone keep as part of your coalition to win the general election come November) massively support Obama & won't take kindly to criticism being levied at him.

It actually is. If you think black people in the South care about who he bombed in the Middle East or whatever I have some ocean front property in Kansas to sell you.

Anyway, I think it's cute how Biden threw up the Obama shield in his new ad on his healthcare plan when Obama endorsed Medicare for All 10 months ago:

Brazil and Paraguay went through highly politicized impeachment scandals during the Obama administration (both considered coups by many on the left in their countries and internationally), although I’m not quite sure what role the US government played beyond just recognizing the post-impeachment governments there (Michel Temer and Rafael Franco).

An endorsement that means nothing when everybody knows that such a bill is going to be politically impossible to enact.

I'm not critiquing Biden's plan. It's just cute that he's framing Medicare for All as a personal affront to President Obama's legacy when Obama endorsed it just 10 months ago. But I know this is what he needs to do to win this primary. Make it about someone else because he can't stand on his own merits.

You shouldn't worry too much about Feeble Joe. Your gal Harris will take him down for us, I have faith in that prediction.

Wait, when did Donald Trump ever answer a question with substance? All he does is talking nonsense.

Not my point, and let’s be honest, substance is only half the equation. Look at Biden in that interview, his responses were delayed, he declined to answer multiple simple questions, he obviously isn’t very good with anything but prescripted campaign statements. Trump, for all his flaws, knows how to play to a crowd and has a sort of perverse charisma — he’d eat Biden alive in a debate.
