To woo voters, I think we should all write the White House and ask for a new candidate with a, "No Kings allowed" message -- probably our VP, Kamala Harris. I think it would get the undecided to pay attention for a minute. I want her (or anyone) out there saying things like, "Dictator? We founded our nation because we knew Monarchs -- and autocrats in general -- were a bad idea!" and, "Nazis? White Nationalism? How many of you have family members who were killed or injured fighting that war? We know we don't want that here. We know how that turns out if unopposed!"
Lastly, the new message should be about government serving the PUBLIC instead of itself.
