Biden currently has a plurality of black support, largely due to strong support from older voters. And while older voters are more likely to turn out in the primaries, he needs to maximize his margin in the GE. So he needs to clean up his communication and say more about his policies that will get better results in the real world. Can't afford a drop in black voter turnout nationally or we risk another 2016, and it won't matter how many primaries Biden won in states that habitually go red in the GE.
I'm rooting for Biden to improve because if he's the nominee, Democrats need to win.
