As you assess the current social, political and economic situation in the United States, what concerns you most?
Just six months from the national election, and with Bernie Sanders quitting the race, are we back to the old Democrats-vs-Republicans formula -- in which case, where will independents go?
On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 the highest rating, where do you place President Trump as a leader, and his handling of the coronavirus and related national emergencies?
Have the events of the past year changed your own political outlook -- from mere observer to involved activist?
What's your formula for making it through these challenging times?

Is the Sanders movement alive or dead? What's its role/agenda in the 2020 presidential election? Clarity urgently needed.
>> Solve the Biden mystery. Bring the case to trial, and we'll know if "it" happened.
>> Mindboggling that minority congressional caucuses have not yet demanded comprehensive data or held hearings on the devastating and disproportionate impact of current national crises on communities of color.

Biden, Democratic Party silent as new evidence reportedly surfaces in former staffer's sex-assault claim against him. Could her 1993 complaint torpedo Biden's 2020 presidential campaign?
The Green Party / Bernie Sanders coalition movement shouldn't leave its remains out to rot. Give the corpse a decent burial.

Would Stacy Abrams Want to Be Biden's Running Mate If She Knew That An Ex-Staffer's 1993 Sexual-Assault Charge Against Him Still Has Not Been Prosecuted?
Rep. Jim Clyburn (D- S.C), a major force behind Joe Biden's startling comeback as a presidential candidate, winning several Southern states against Bernie Sanders, has strongly urged Biden to choose a woman--a black woman--as his running mate November's general election.
Biden has committed to having a woman vice president on his ticket, but hasn't said who he's considering, even as several prominent black civil-rights and political leaders say Abrams is the one.
Abrams, too, says she should be the one, and she's been very clear about it. She's more than qualified, she says, and would consider it an honor to serve with him.
But there are issues.
Is Abrams actually demanding the No. 2 spot on Biden's ticket and lining up supporters to force his hand? How can an avowed women's rights defender ignore a 1993 alleged sexual-assault by then-U.S. senator Biden that still remains unprosecuted.

This year, after an election that will cap four years of unrelenting social, economic and political turmoil and upheaval in the United States, voters will select a president who will hold the nation's highest office for a new term of four years.
Given what we've been through as a nation, there should be a swarm of candidates, supported by a swarm of political parties, vying for our attention with their innovative ideas and agendas.
Instead, voters are once again faced with a tired rehash of the political handbook: Whittle the field down to two candidates, then give voters a choice -- between the lesser of two evils and the evil of two lessers.
Take your pick. It's American democracy.
Is this your version?
