If Pete in 2024/8 focuses on a message for all, that treats people as aspiring to do better on their own talents and skills, and shaping a government that lets people do that, as opposed to patiently waiting for government to solve all their problems, or hoping government beats down all the wrong-thinkers, or that elections can be rioted against if they come out the wrong way.

The alternative is more navel gazing about how racist we all are, defunding the police, forgiving criminals, letting everyone in, and forcing trans women onto HS sports teams.

That doesn't work with Whites, and it seems actual POC as opposed to Twitter POC don't seem to like it much either, if we take 2020 and 2021's election results in mind.

Because the alternative, to me, is letting the crowds of 1/6 take over. But that isn't enough for many people. Fulminating about how dumn they all are won't exactly work, either. So we have to focus on the legitimate grievances and concerns of the people. [/quote]
