But the Middle East had higher development than the west during the Islamic golden age, and their countries have very valuable resources like oil

The issue for any dem now is if they think Kamala will lose and challenge her but lose, if she goes on to lose they may be blamed for it and if they try to run in the future people will say they had their shot and lost. It makes more sense to just not challenge her and let her lose then they can swoop in after that with a much better shot next cycle.

You know what would be nuts but smart, RFK Jr. reregisters as a Democrat and challenges Kamala at the convention. He’ll lose but if he uses the opportunity to bring up his more progressive proposals while all eyes are on him he can pull some dem voters with him when he returns to his independent run.

How many economics books have you read?

That makes no sense, being a VP basically guarantees a future nomination if he seeks it. I get why Kamala is in the conversation despite arguably being a weaker choice (everyone already knows her so she has less room to improve and is also losing to trump in polls) but I don’t know why everyone brings up Newsom, he is deeply hated by a lot of the country and comes across unlikable and slick. Infamously he once starred in a pro gay marriage ad and polls actually found people became less favorable to it after the ad came out because he was so unlikable. Any popular dem governor team especially if they’re from a swing state would easily beat Trump. If it’s Kamala or Newsom it is unclear who will win.

If no one chose to oppose him, that is different. Obama wisely waits until the nominee is decided before entering the campaign.

It’s not fair and square because there were no debates and some states like Florida cancelled the primary. Both candidates you mentioned said themselves they were blocked from a fair contest. Had they had debates this whole thing would have been avoided and they’d have had months more to focus on campaigning against Trump by the way.

No it isn’t. They didn’t have debates, the candidates didn’t even get townhalls on major outlets, multiple states just cancelled the primary. Polls showed that the majority of democrats wanted him to drop out. https://www.ipsos.com/en-us/abc-news-ipsos-july-survey

Biden would not have dropped out if dozens of top experts weren’t telling him he can’t win

The problem is they’d lose donors who are against many popular proposals

The exact same as what Biden would do or any other potential democrat nominee would do

Kamala has an advantage over Biden in that she can usually speak normally, and she may be less associated with Gaza but, her major disadvantage is it will be way easier to associate her with wokeness. They tried to do this with Biden but it never caught it. It’ll be more effective with Kamala.

She is VP… everyone knows who she is. That’s her problem, everyone already has a opinion on her, many on the wrong foot.

Obama hasn’t endorsed her, they’re going to the convention

It doesn’t. She’s a career politician and was Vice President.

Biden and his advisors have more experience than you. Their choice is more accurate.

Trump accepting the early debate will go down as the biggest mistake in political campaigning history. If he just waited to do the regularly scheduled debate in September, Biden would have collapsed but it would be too late for him to drop out, and Trump would have possibly landslided the country.

I think they have a chance with victory with Kamala, unlike with Biden who was going to get crushed. But I think if they nominated popular governors from swing states they’d easily beat Trump. If Trump loses I don’t know whats going to happen. His base is going to flip out, Trump might try to run again in 2028 maybe even as an independent and collapse the Republican Party. At the same time most of the establishment media which props up democrats has been cratering under Biden and will probably be even worse off after 4 more years of a democratic Admin (when trumps in office they actually got a big boost), this combined with democrats not really resolving core issues for one or two more administrations could set the stage for a major red wave in the future.

The population is basically trapped under three pillars, but they can’t remove one pillar because the other two crush them. Military industrial complex and other lobbies buy politicians - but you can’t regulate them because they buy the politicians who make the regulations The politicians make war and won’t regulate the lobbies - but you can’t vote them out because the media blocks the public from knowing what they’re doing and crushes opposition The media blocks the public from the truth through manufactured consent - but you can’t stop them because you need the media to educate the public to want change but the media itself is stopping this

It’s called preselection.
