How To Get the Bernie Supporters to Vote for Biden

draft

I have heard a lot of people command and threaten Bernie supporters that they had better enthusiastically support Joe Biden or they are traitors, etc. I dont think that is the best approach. Here is what I suggest you do to get people's enthusiasm. The following is intended for example only, obviously the details might vary.

Joe Biden would announce a major policy speech. For that speech, Bernie Sanders would introduce him and say something like "I would like to introduce my good friend and long time colleague in the struggle for justice in this country, please welcome, Joe Biden!" and then Biden would go up there and, in JFK or RFK style, in ringing tones, say something like "We will end racial discrimination in this country! We will guarantee an elite education to anyone who qualifies! We will see that the rich pay their fair share of taxes and undo the stupid so-called Republican tax reform! We will put the criminals of the previous administration in jail! We will punish those countries that have interfered in our elections and attacked our society! We will get the right wing nutty boys like Roberts, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh off the bench because America will not be a slave to the right wing minority! We will make our elections free and fair for all Americans! We will take a leading role in addressing global climate change! We will do all this and more. Join me!"

And then I think you would no longer have to threaten Bernie supporters to get their vote.

  1. Michael, I of course have no idea what the timeline of your post here was, but it appears that Biden must've been reading your blog - and responded in a very timely fashion!
