    Swing voters. People in the middle of the aisle.

    IMHO the suburban traditional swing voters are already energized to vote if not for the democrat then against the president.

    Perhaps. People in the suburbs enjoy safe suburbs though. They see the violence by the left and that's probably a turn off. Suburban people actually like the police, because they want them to keep the riff raff in check.

    I mean, there's no one who's actually excited for Biden. No one expects him to finish out his term and he's a placeholder for his VP.

    i have stated my opinion before that uncle joe will only run and serve a single term and the sitting VP becomes the presumptive democratic candidate in 2024.

    So you admit he's just a useless placeholder.

    traditional black churches, of similar numbers of voters to the white evangelical churches on the right seem to be suitably enthused. it is often underestimated the power of the pulpit in the black baptist coalition of churches.
    edit MLK. the current pastor of his church in georgia is currently running for the US senate in 2020

    Is Kamala Harris black enough though?

    Also, her record as DA isn't the one that most aligns with BLM?

    No I admit he is old. He will be 81-82 when his term ends. He won't run again.

    biden has already promised the first supreme court appointment of his administration to be a liberal black women. it was this "deal with the devil" many on the right signed up for and voted in last presidential election. i expect the culture wars to continue unfortunately.

    This liberal leaning journalist will, but will Black Lives Matter types go out and vote for an old white man and a former prosecutor with a spotty record?

    Over Trump, yes! They will line up and stay as long as they have to do it.
