Neither candidate is going to gain any new voters. The danger is that previous Biden voters stay home and he looses those votes. Dems are going to have to make this really simple for any idiots that might think about not voting … the SCOTUS is on the line.

Why isn’t anyone talking about Trump policies? Yes Biden looked bad tonight, but what are Trump policies on education, healthcare, foreign policy, and etc.

Most politicians are pimps to the highest bidder.
Policies? Policies? tRump don't got to show you no stinkin' policies!

Ain't GAT no damn policies.

He hates the same people (Black, Muslim, Mexican, gay) as they hate.

That's what maga is all about.

Why an HBCU Med School Decided to Put CARES Act Money Into Students’ Pockets​

By Blake Farmer, Nashville Public Radio2 years ago
Andreas-Nelson.jpeg

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Just before students at Meharry Medical College went home for Thanksgiving, Dr. James Hildreth, the school’s president, emailed them a video message that he acknowledged seemed hard to believe. Or at least they had to give it a second listen.
“We’ll gift each of you $10,000 in cash,” he said, looking at the camera. “You heard me right.”
They were told to expect a direct deposit the next day or pick up a check in person. Hildreth, an expert in infectious diseases who helped lead Nashville’s pandemic response, explained that this gift with no strings attached was money from the CARES Act, a major covid-19 relief law passed by Congress in 2020. He asked only that they be “good stewards” of the windfall.
After deep consideration, Meharry’s administration decided to give roughly a third of its CARES Act funding — $10 million — directly to its future doctors, dentists and public health researchers. All told, 956 students received payments.
Meharry’s students had already been heavily involved in the pandemic response, staffing Nashville’s mass covid testing and vaccination sites. But the money isn’t so much surprise compensation for volunteer efforts as it is an investment in a future career — and an assist in overcoming financial hurdles Black students especially face to become medical professionals.

While Black Americans make up roughly 13% of the population, the Association of American Medical Colleges finds Black doctors account for just 5% of the nation’s working physicians — a figure that has grown slowly over more than a century. And studies have found that Black patients often want to be cared for by someone whom they consider culturally competent in acknowledging their heritage, beliefs and values during treatment.
Meharry graduates more Black physicians than almost any other U.S. school. And half of its M.D.s enter the high-demand but lower-paying specialty of primary care.
“We felt that there was no better way to begin distributing these funds than by giving to our students who will soon give so much to our world,” Hildreth said.
Cheers erupted in the library as students clicked the video link.
Andreas Nelson fell silent, he recalled later. He went to his banking app and stared in disbelief. “$10,000 was sitting just in my bank account. It was astonishing,” he said. “I was literally lost for words.”
The Chicago native is finishing a master’s degree in health and science at Meharry with hopes of entering its dental school. The average student loan debt in the program totals more than $280,000. So, undoubtedly, 10 grand won’t make much of a dent in the debt.
But the money in his pocket eases his top concern of making rent each month. Nelson said it feels as though he’s being treated like an adult, allowing him to decide what his greatest needs are in getting through school.
“It’s motivating,” Nelson said. “Because that means they have trust in us to do with this money whatever the cause may be — whether it be student debt, investing or just personal enjoyment.”
Across the board, students at HBCUs rely more on student loans than students at historically white institutions. Roughly 80% take out student loans, according to an analysis by UNCF, formerly known as the United Negro College Fund, and they borrow considerably more.
Meharry was founded a decade after the Civil War to help those who had been enslaved. But the 145-year-old institution has always struggled financially, and so have its students.
The reasons are rooted in the country’s racist past, which has left the institutions with less money potentially available for scholarships than other universities. And students’ families generally have less wealth to tap into since Black households across the country have averaged around $17,000 in net worth — about a tenth of the average for white families.
Meharry’s average student debt is far higher than other area schools of medicine at Vanderbilt University and the University of Tennessee, representing both private and public institutions.
Virtually all colleges and universities received allotments under the CARES Act, but HBCUs have been much more aggressive about funneling substantial amounts directly to students, who tend to have greater need. More than 20 HBCUs have erased outstanding tuition balances. Some have canceled student fees.
But Meharry, one of the few stand-alone HBCU graduate schools, is a rare case in cutting checks for students.
“These young people are rising to medical school against all odds,” said Lodriguez Murray, who leads public policy and government affairs at UNCF. “Of course, they have to borrow more because people who look like them have less.”
During the pandemic, major philanthropists have taken new interest in supporting the few HBCU medical schools. Michael Bloomberg committed $100 million to four institutions, including Meharry, to help educate more Black doctors.
Students at Meharry can now apply for $100,000 scholarships. The $34 million from Bloomberg Philanthropies is also going toward other kinds of financial support.
The school is now offering, for no additional fee, expensive test-prep services through a Boston-based company, MedSchoolCoach. The service, which entails paying a doctor by the hour to help with studying, can cost thousands of dollars.
While the price is often out of reach for students tight on cash, acing the benchmark exams toward board licensure is key to landing coveted fellowships, qualifying for lucrative specialties or just finishing on time. And Meharry’s four-year completion rate of roughly 70% is below most schools. The most up-to-date national average is around 82%.
For some, Murray said, a $10,000 windfall may make all the difference in whether they cross the finish line and become a doctor who can afford all their medical school debt.
“Many of those students are borrowing a lot of money to complete their dream, and to become relatively high earners in the future,” Murray said. “The fact that these students are largely coming from lower socioeconomic backgrounds means that the funds that Meharry turned around and gave to the students are particularly impactful.”

As expected the sycophants are lining up to protect their man.

Hit dogs go ahead and holler.

Democrats rug-pulled Bernie, that was their first mistake.

Ran Hilary, we see how that went.

Biden won cause he wasn't Trump.

Now Trump may win cause he's not Biden.

As I stated before, very few folks changed their vote tonight but one guy was undeniably sharper on the mic and that's enough for many (stupid and selfish) Americans.

Yeah Michelle Obama might have a better chance of winning, than Kamala Harris :smh:
She wouldn't win either


Lets just say, for example.....
If Joe Biden did not want to run for another term

So then we had Kamala Harris vs Michelle Obama
During the democratic primaries, starting since the end of 2023
(Giving Michelle months to campain)
Who do you think would have a good chance of winning the nomination
And possibly winning the election vs Trump

Harris admits Biden had "a slow start," but says he had "a strong finish" in debate​

From CNN's Tori B. Powell

Vice President Kamala Harris admitted that President Joe Biden had a “slow start” at tonight’s CNN debate, but said he had a “strong finish.”
“People can debate on style points, but ultimately, this election and who is the president of the United States has to be about substance and the contrast is clear,” she said when pressed by CNN’s Anderson Cooper about Biden’s performance.
She went on to point out what she claimed were lies pushed by former President Donald Trump during the debate.

I 100% agree which makes it even worst to hear people on his dick because he could deliver a speech other than someone else.

I could give a flying fuck about what you say. I go off data and actually policies

Bruh the problem that folks aren't understanding is that there arent any other 2 people in the country famous enough to win against either one of these two.

Esp in this short period of time. 4+ months bruh

The biggest criticism against him is that he's too old. If a cold can make him give a performance like that, then he's proving their point.

Plus the "cold" didn't seem to affect him when he spoke after the debate.
His performance was shitty because he is a shitty public speaker, always has been.

Americans are too often swayed by the cover, and rarely read the book.

And ALWAYS have strong opinions regardless...

These dudes are delusional, thinking this was just one bad night. Sleepy Joe is over 80 years old and the decline is evident. This is not going to get better, it will just get worse. If Trump is a threat to democracy like they keep saying then replace Biden asap.

"IF"?


Why the fuck is this nazi lover allowed to post here?

Seriously. Black people are the ONLY fucking people in the goddamned WORLD that would allow a klansmen
to openly participate in political "debate".

We need a Coleman Alexander Young (not his kid) for our times. We are in deep shit, and "massa, dem slaves is tryna 'scape"

That's the problem bro.

You're an educated and informed voter.

The rest of America is not.

Optics are everything, as well as telling people what they want to hear.

Trump is an expert at that, a real pied piper.

Biden don't move the meter like that. He just won by default last time.

I WISH it were all about the policies but since Kennedy it has never been and we ain't going back.

That’s not main issue.

The issue is the American Electorate.

Biden/Trump are Baby Boomers. The BB era was supposed to end in 2016 when Obama left office. Obama was at the tail end of the BB generation.

Generation X was supposed to enter the political arena for POTUS in 2016.

That didn’t happen. We got two BB with Hillary and Trump along with Bernie.

Then 2020 comes along and again we had 2 BB with Biden/Trump. The Gen X candidates in 2020 all fizzled out.

And in 2024, again we got 2 BB candidates who should not be running in office.

Gen X by default will run in 2028 and maybe 2032 unless a strong Millennial pops up in 2032.

Gen X. has failed this era of U.S. politics. Historians 50+ years from now will be studying this era and scratching their head going “WTF?”.
Yeah all these old niggas refuse to step the fuck aside !
Disgusting shit

Kennedy was afforded accolades largely for the accomplishments of Johnson.

The democrats rely on young people to come out and vote. Young people are watching old folks stay in office so long that they are literally dying in office.

As for reading the book, young people are most definitely reading about how Biden is helping Israel commit genocide and they don't like it.

Trump would be worse, but the democrats can not afford for young people to stay home.

Genocide yes, against arabs.

You DO know that the relationship between arabs and Black Africans has historically been one of master and slave, don't you?
Of course you don't.

You talk as though Biden CREATED this relationship with Israel.
What about Obama? Clinton? Bush I and II?

Why is it only relevant with respect to Biden?
Because you are doing the republicans' work, spreading Putin talking points and memes.

If that is the best you got, give up. I cannot be responsible for the fact that young folks don't have attention spans longer than a millisecond.

You... are making even less sense. What exactly is your major complaint?

Be specific.
Grammar counts.
Man just get back on your knees, close your eyes and open your mouth and be the good little maga version of a democract. When the mid 70's Republicans Supreme Court justices get replaced by late 40's republican Supreme Court justices and you finish swallowing , just remember grammer counts.
