Who knows what the players might do next, as they realize the power of the attention and admiration they command? They may even make as much effort to end African American , LatinX , and student voter suppression that took place in this year's Democratic primaries, helping to make Joe Biden the Democrats' weak, so-called choice.
(Yes, African American voters turned out heavily for Biden in South Carolina, and in Michigan, most notably in Detroit, and maybe that was enough to power Biden’s improbable Lazarus-like resurrection at the polls , but I doubt it and I’m not the only one. Either way let’s hope the players will battle voter suppression, which is above all African American voter suppression, in the primaries as well as the general election from hereon.)
