Two items. One, the black agenda is an agenda that is good for all Americans, urban, suburban, and rural. Two, age of the candidates. It’s complicated. The one club gentleman articulated quite well. It’s time for a transition to younger elected leaders. We have two candidates who are septuagenarians. Can they get the job done for a progressive agenda espoused be the other candidates. I’m hesitant with both of the older candidates. I’m an old guy and I see some seniors i.e. grassley and turtle beholden to the corporate interest. Legislation must be skewed hard toward the people.

I will vote for the nominee(s) that come out of the convention. I want a win for us, the people.

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
