    I found that this candidate’s campaign made a mistake. See? They jaywalked to reach their stage for a rally.

    Now, raise your hand if you actually find that mistake to be important. That is an important and personal decision. By any normal standards, every candidate in every election has made mistakes. Just that the mistakes of the opponent were rape, insurrection, and repeated business failures.

    Campaigns are short in some other countries; people aren’t often helped by getting signals about someone 8 months before elections.

    In short, I accept basic adult criticism of Kamala, but not nearly enough to forgive people who voted against her. Yes, AIPAC has staggering influence in US politics, and sadly we couldn’t fix that with an election.
