I know that it's popular to dismiss President Biden. I get it. He's old. This is the first election featuring the 2 oldest candidates, ever. So what? The future of the WORLD is literally dependent on this election. To boot Biden from the ticket and try to bootstrap another candidate is madness. Booting this incumbent and hoping his VP will succeed is like firing the cook and hoping the dishwasher will give you Michelin-quality food. Stick with the old man, and figure out a way to enact his popular policies while also expanding the Supreme Court, enacting term limits and limiting "Christian" Nationalists.

Oh shit, is this supposed to be a response to me asking about ranked choice voting? Assuming that's the case:

That's cool for Arizona. I hope it passes. But I don't live in Arizona. Most americans don't. What should those of us not in Arizona do to bring about ranked choice voting?

Hopefully, citizen petitions are allowed on the ballot in your state, because it's a fairly easy one to get on the ballot that way—a ton of people want it. Otherwise you'll have to lobby your state congress critters, which unfortunately is not as easy…
