Yep. A pure politician in the worst sense of the word. She and Biden will say anything if it polls well. I would have much preferred Warren on the ticket. But she turned a lot of Democrats off. I think she scared them since she was a fighter. But Trump has got to go and maybe this bland pair can win and hopefully take some Republican congress people down with them.

Much, much harder. But this is unsuprising. In the first place, the media coverage is totally, massively slanted in Israel's favour, and alkso AIPAC and the UJA are very powerful, well-resourced organisations

Didn’t America become much more pro-Israel following the the six-day war (Israel proving its military usefulness/strength and the messianic loons getting excited about Jerusalem)?

Fewer religious nuts (Jew or Gentile) here though
I guess my question is did the intense American support for Israel stem from the six day war? What was the attitude towards Israel and Palestine before then?

Actually, it goes back to shortly after the foundation of the state of Israel. It certainly accelerated after '67

the latter, almost certain. he's from there, for one thing. The former, lap of the gods. Florida has a big latino vote though - most of whom won't be hugely impressed by Trump's racism towards LatinosEconomist says that Biden has a 6 in 7 chance of winning.

sure, it's 3 months away from the vote, so 'certain' was a tad overconfodent from me. But Trump, by all reasonable indicators, has a masive mountain to climb in Pennsylvania. It's possible - but no bookie would bet on it.There's that certainty again!

Oh, they have a Brentwood in America. I thought he was just up the road from me.
Yes, me too. I thought he might be moonlighting from his usual Towie gig.

In My Defence I was left Unsupervised
This guy actually hits the nail squarely on the headchairman bob endorses biden.
In Avakian’s 4,000-plus word statement, he calls the Democratic candidate an “instrument” of the “exploitative, oppressive, and literally murderous system of capitalism-imperialism,”
Biden is not “‘better’ than Trump, in any meaningful way—except that he is not Trump.”
Biden is irrelevant really, this election is entirely about the Cheeto-in-Chief and his dumpster fire presidency, It's a vote to keep him or get rid of him whether he is replaced by Biden or the PG Tips monkey

agreed 100% - spot on.
having said that. If they implrement just some of the Green New Deal stuff in the platform, it will make it all seem worthwhile.
Biden doesn't truly represent what the American people really warn. That is, leave the rotten establishment American way behiind and turn to 'socially' responsible capitalism that actually cares about the middle class and lower on the ladder. So he's still iffy because he's missing that necessary appeal.
Biden is just lucky that most of the people are going to vote for anybody but the sociopath/narcissist president, so that should do it.
If not, I assure ya'all that Canadians don't really care all that much. The sociopath bodes as well for peace with the nuke club of nation as does Biden. Maybe even a better chance of peace with Trump!
Otherwide, for domestic policy in the US? Vote Trump and he will make your country a fascist state easily within his next 4 years.

Joe Biden’s DNC Speech Sounded A Lot Like A Jack Layton Quote
Some lines sounded very similar to the late NDP leader’s last words to Canadians.
In his final message to Canadians, the late NDP leader Jack Layton promised something quite similar.
“My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world.”
That is a terrible approach though, and it will probably backfire. I remember a lot of the discussion after 2016 was around the fact that Republicans win when people don't turn up; Obama won both of his elections easily because people liked him, same as Bill Clinton, they were really charismatic and smart and so on.
If you take a longer view of it and forget that Trump is special it kind of seems like business as usual. Trump is really unpopular but he is running against a boring opponent so a lot of people will just not bother turning up, especially in these difficult times. 2012 The Republicans ran Romney against Obama because they liked him but he was never going to win
2008 The Republicans ran McCain against Obama because they liked him but he was never going to win
2004 The Democrats ran Kerry against Bush because they liked him....
2000 Al Gore...
1996 Bob Dole...
There is a pattern of rubbish people running against the incumbent and losing,
