Why?
The survival of our freedoms and democracy is the most important issue in 2024. It encompasses all other important issues, such as climate change, women’s rights, education, civil rights, worker’s rights, affordable healthcare, Medicare, social security, and more.
Our democracy is threatened by Project 2025 and Trump. If elected, Trump’s agenda will be based on The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 (see below). Trump and Project 2025 supporters hide under the label “conservative,” but they are not conservatives: Their goal is to undermine our democracy and devolve it from striving for a more perfect union to an unregulated predatory corporatocracy (profit regardless of consequences), with theocratic (racist Christian nationalism) and oligarchic (billionaire class) oversight. This means you and I will vote in farce elections like in Russia or North Korea. We will lose basic protections under the law, such as clean air, water, and food, regulation of toxic chemicals, Social Security, due process, free speech, free press, and much more.
Our democracy is threatened by Big Money because corporations and billionaires influence elections with unlimited and undisclosed spending. They support a right-wing corporate agenda, which includes Project 2025 and could end our democracy, along with American rights and protections.
We can end the threat by gaining majority control of the U.S. Congress (51%, House and 60%, Senate; a Constitutional amendment requires 2/3 vote in both). We must elect Democrats who fight for working families, work to overturn Citizens United and reform campaign finance, restore Roe v Wade, and repeal the unconstitutional rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court, which essentially makes the President of the United States a monarch and puts that person above the law.

And please talk to people about voting for, if possible, progressive Democrats (key: they are funded with small donations from individual citizens, and they don't accept Big Money donors so they work for your best interests, not corporate agendas)

So let's assess the Biden-Harris Administration’s vs Trump’s results.
The Biden-Harris Administration produced results that benefit all of us
The Biden-Harris Administration (Biden-Harris) has achieved major results at home and abroad in only 3 years – results that benefit all of us—despite dealing with Putin’s unprovoked war in Ukraine; the challenging Israel-Gaza situation; ongoing obstruction from congressional Republicans and DINOs (Manchin and Sinema); and minimal, if any, reporting by the media on the Biden-Harris Adminstration’s achievements and successes.
Biden-Harris drove the passage of the hugely impactful Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), Infrastructure Bill; the CHIPS and Science Act, which assures critical semiconductors are made in America. They established the Council on Supply Chain Resilience to reduce future disruptions similar to the pandemic. They encouraged the highest U.S. oil production in history, which lowered gas pump prices. Biden-Harris has bragging rights on the extraordinarily successful economy. And, with Biden-Harris’s acceleration of clean energy production, renewable power is setting record highs, while violent crime is the lowest in fifty years. Biden-Harris’s team put COVID safety nets in place, rebuilt US diplomacy, rejoined the Paris climate accords, affirmed our strong NATO alliance, and encouraged a new Asian NATO. These are just a few of Biden-Harris’s many accomplishments.
Biden-Harris strengthened America, domestically and internationally; continues to strengthen our democratic republic, and working to unify the nation. The media irresponsibly under-reported the accomplishments of the Biden-Harris Administration, and virtually did not report on Harris’ significant many contributions, especially in the area of women’s rights, healthcare, and abortion.
Trump was ranked the worst president in U.S. history
Trump is four years younger than Joe Biden, but his “youthfulness” would be a horrible tradeoff for a man who could instigate an authoritarian takeover and undermine our republic and rule of law. Trump is a national security risk and disdainful of those who serve in the military. Trump would weaken NATO and align with dictators.
Moreover and most alarmingly, if re-elected in 2024, Trump is ready to base his presidency on Project 2025! The extreme right-wing Heritage Foundation, a “conservative” think tank has published a 1,000 page document called Project 2025 which supports Christian nationalism, a fundamentally fascist theocratic dictatorship. This will undermine our democratic republic, disregard the rule of law, bypass or reconstrue the U.S. Constitution, gut the EPA, and reject climate science, among many other heretical goals.
In 2023, Trump was convicted of 17 felonies, including tax fraud. In the E. Jean Carroll cases, he was convicted of sexual abuse and defamation. On February 16, 2024, Trump, his eldest sons and their associates were convicted on charges of conspiracy, insurance fraud and falsifying business records. Trump must pay more than $450M in penalties plus interest. Trump has been indicted for 91 more felonies in four pending cases and is likely to be criminally convicted for at least one, if not all, of these crimes which could result in a prison sentence.
Trump voices simple thoughts with his limited vocabulary—often incoherent, divisive, misogynist, racist, or xenophobic. There’s convincing evidence that Trump is a puppet of American right-wing billionaires (https://bit.ly/49h1KMW , https://bit.ly/48kWOFg) and a Russian asset (https://bit.ly/3uz5aeQ , https://bit.ly/3uvh4X4). Like a “mob” boss, he “leads” through threats and intimidation. With at least six business failures, Trump’s strongest skills are hype, instigating violence, telling Big Lies, and grifting. Trump is a loser.
Harris is key to ongoing strengthening of our economy and democracy
Let’s always remember that President Joe Biden’s Cabinet included Vice President Kamala Harris, expert heads of 15 executive departments, and each department consists of expert advisors—all combined comprised the “Biden-Harris Administration”. And Vice President Kamala Harris, next in line for the Presidency, has been a significant contributor to the most successful Biden-Harris Administration.
VPOTUS Harris has the experience to be POTUS, and she has high energy, high intelligence, sharp mental acuity, and rapid repartee. She’s lively, enthusiastic, and commanding. Harris offers competent continuity of executive success! And moreover, she will certainly attract support from women, regardless of color, from diverse ethnic groups, and from young voters. She’s a winner!
The Biden-Harris Administration’s and future Harris-Walz Administration’s policies are key to strengthening our democratic republic and our economy. Democrat-controlled congresses, state and federal, will get Big Money out of politics and eliminate the possibility of a takeover by criminals, a wannabe dictator, and Christian nationalists.
Vote for Harris/Walz for POTUS/VPOTUS and Democrat-controlled congresses, state and federal, up and down ballot.
