New York Times: Now, confronted with a moment that many believe will upend the 2020 election the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the prospect of a bitter Supreme Court confirmation battle Mr. Bidens campaign is sticking to what it believes is a winning strategy. Campaign aides said Saturday they would seek to link the court vacancy to the health emergency gripping the country and the future of health care in America.
While confirmation fights have long centered on hot-button cultural divides such as guns and especially abortion, the Biden campaign, at least at the start, plans to chiefly focus on protecting the Affordable Care Act and its popular guarantee of coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.

Health care also ties directly to COVID. Smart.

(51,590 posts)Bernie suggested he make health care a focus more and I agreed, even though not a Bernie fan. Stick with what we know works and it is health care, especially now with Covid and the SCOTUS killing pre-existing conditions (applies to everyone's insur, not just those with an ACA plan).

Thats how we win middle class whites. If Joe say elect me and I will work to insure that you will not lose everything if you get sick he will win in a landslide.
