Want to know what’s a winning issue? legalization of Marijuana. Need joe to get away from his old ways of thinking on this and to push forward this issue with overwhelming bipartisan support.

He could also overturn Qualified Immunity with an executive order that can’t be overturned, simply by stating that we will be following the full text of section 1983 as was voted into law in 1871 by Congress, not as was illegally modified by a single southern revisionist in 1874.

Going down in history as the most anti-corruption president would also win him the election.

That would be great, but I don’t know that qualified immunity is a big vote-getter.

Legalizing weed? Huge vote-getter.

Having a rash of corrupt cops immediately facing charges is the vote getter
