For many of us, the thought of a Biden presidency is not very inspiring, and the fact that he is the one facing off against Trump is cause for more dismay than it is comfort. For progressive young voters and many others who supported Bernie, Warren or any of the other younger, more diverse or inspiring primary candidates, it has been difficult to muster much enthusiasm for Biden's candidacy besides the fact that another four years of a Trump presidency seems like throwing our country and souls into an abyss. It is worrisome to think that apathy could contribute to this unthinkable future, and so it is time for difficult conversations about how we can get past our misgivings and find ways to generate some momentum for Biden's candidacy.
With less than one hundred days until the election we invited dedicated advocates for change, Brandy Bones and Sarah Ullman to converse about finding the promise in this campaign, and the future it will make possible for an America in turmoil and in danger of irrevocable damage. This episode gets existential but also practical and even hopeful about what change we might see and how we might not be forsaken after all. This is an episode for anyone feeling bleak about November, and we hope it helps energize citizens to vote in this incredibly consequential Presidential election. It also underscores the importance of supporting other candidates so that we never find ourselves with such a frustrating set of options again.
