None of Biden's opponents had any chance of winning the South, and Biden was postulated to have a decent shot at winning Pennsylvania which is an important swing state. Winning the presidential election in the US is about appealing to key demographics in key regions, not winning the most votes. To win as a democrat, you have to be popular with black people both to win the primary and to have a shot at North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, etc. Also Florida to some extent. The (D) next to your name will carry the West coast and New England. There are many things I detest about the Democratic party, but its reliance on racial minorities probably bothers me the most. I wish they'd find a way to appeal to middle class suburban whites. Quote:
But really he hasn't done much of substance to punish China for being liars, cheaters, and intellectual property thieves. Just a whole lot of rhetoric, threats, and some ineffectual tariffs. Better than nothing though | ||||

The Congresscritters depend on passing legislation they can crow about back home how effective they are so they get re-elected. They need a strong President to make that happen. Also, the President usually serves as the Party leader so you need some strength there too. | |||

I haven't yet talked to a single person face-to-face who regards Biden as a serious candidate. Pretty well everyone on both "sides" seems to agree the man's a front.

They suspect this may be a problem though because China's SOE's don't really import the goods we're exporting very much, the private sector does. It's unclear to me though, what happens if China can't actually meet the agreement due to those conditions? Does anyone know if there's some language in the agreement that holds them accountable somehow if they can't? Also, if someone could clarify, what are people's concerns about China's economy becoming more state driven than it already is? | ||||
