Not really. He'll get a pass (and he already has) for any personal scandals which he may or may not have because he's a member of the privileged and protected class (read: wealthy Democrat), whereas I'm of the RAMs (Raggedy-Assed Masses) and thus enjoy neither. BTW this thread wasn't about any of Joe Biden's personal issues, it was about how the RNC has just tarred him over his claim of "no scandals" in the Obama administration. I thought that unfair (honest), and commented on the need for him to be smarter if he's going to get elected. He really needs James Carville IMO, if Carville is still acting as a kingmaker, that is.

Hi Mark,

Re:  'He'll get a pass (and he already has) for any personal scandals which he may or may not have'

So you know of no scandals regarding Biden.  How about you come back when the bone has some meat on it?  As of today, zilch.

Re:  'because he's a member of the privileged and protected class (read: wealthy Democrat), whereas I'm of the RAMs (Raggedy-Assed Masses)'

Your personal jealousy and anger don't cut it with me.  How about just working harder so you can get what the other guy has?

Re:  ' it was about how the RNC has just tarred him over his claim of "no scandals" in the Obama administration.'

See my first comment above.

I was reading a BBC article on the US senate elections and it struck me that the measure of likelihood of winning was the size of the funds raised. 
 

It’s probably too broken to fix, but I’d imagine if you could move from money to policy it would be a big step forward. Also in this day and age of social media I imagine a clever and savvy person could get a groundswell of support with very little cost

It was done in 2018:

Joe Crowley: $3,000,000, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: $600,000.
