As Democrats enter an already challenging midterm election, they face a new challenge: theyre losing support among Black voters. Since the 2020 election, President Bidens support among Black voters has dropped more than 20 percent. Some voters say they went to bat for the Biden-Harris ticket, but the administration hasnt gone to bat for them. But the head of the Democratic National Committee says the White House has many accomplishments to point to.

(15,646 posts)defeated in 22/24. The MSM is an enemy of democracy. Instead of highlighting issues of inequity and what can be done about them, they instead choose to paint a picture of a weak and ineffective party. NBC apparently sees gain in taking this route as opposed to loss. They simply are not concerned about the loss of genuine democracy.
If we somehow do prevail in 22 or in 2024 both at the WH and in Congress, we damn well better do everything we can to break the stranglehold of big-money and hyper-aggregation of capital throughout our economic and political systems. We will otherwise be doomed as a truly free nation of equals -- if we are not already.

Uneducated voters, no matter their skin tone or first language, is one the the bigger issues that needs addressing to get the nation back on the right track.
I can't believe ANYONE would vote GOP these days.
That's like cutting off one's nose to spite their face!

We have to do our best to educate everyone. It seems like articles like this try to pit us against each other.

(6,265 posts)I just don't believe this. Yes, I believe some people get frustrated at the shape of things. Both politically and otherwise. Yet I think most African-Americans want sanity and proper reason from their leadership. ONLY the DEMOCRATIC PARTY offers sanity. If an AA goes republican, so be it. They are outliers, nothing more, nothing less. It is more but I'm afraid to speak my full truth here. President Biden is not losing that much support. Just MSM with bullshit polls trying to create a horserace when no track is there.
