I support this move. It is unlikely to succeed, but making the need for it to succeed a political issue to motivate voting is important.

The "official" GOP platform runs 16 pages, but if we take out the title page, the dedication page, a three-page rambling "preamble" and the page with a table of contents printed in 72-point font, it's only *ten* pages long. Project 2025, the actual platform, is 900+ pages long. Focus on that.

Either the Democrats will run Biden, or he'll say he can't continue the campaign and Democrats will run Harris. Either is newsworthy, but neither is nearly as radical as running a pro-insurrection convicted felon with legal immunity he's eager to use.

When I saw Biden at a fundraiser early this month, he sounded tired and a bit feeble, particularly contrasted with Obama talking right next to him. But the choice between enfeebled and a narcissistic sociopath surrounded by younger narcissistic sociopaths is not even a little difficult.

We got tricked by science fiction into thinking a futuristic city is all about flying cars and crystal towers and hologram billboards but what it really looks like is nice apartment blocks, good mass transit, pedestrian zones with shade trees and safe bike lanes.
