Biden explains why he dropped out of White House race.
Among the many American virtues, honesty and good faith are most admirable. Besides tribute to history, transparency and truth, Biden’s interview is an act of appropriate presidential statemanship.
“A number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them in the races,” he said. “And I was concerned if I stayed in the race, that would be the topic. You’d be interviewing me about, Why did Nancy Pelosi say, why did so — and I thought it’d be a real distraction.” To size this up literally, interviews in the media about what Pelosi says, would be real distraction to the election (issues) and so the sitting president and election candidate dropped out. After the debate and the known circumstances.
Furthermore, Biden says that American democracy is in danger and so we have to defeat Trump (who is the danger). To size this up also, in the elections we have the question of democracy and in this question, we have Harris/Walz policies vs Trump/Vance policies, Biden says. For American democracy to be exact. Yet democracy is a point of politics and policy (1) but also it is a point of law, of constitution to be exact (2). For these two points, run the candidate teams in the elections. Pure mathematics, indicate the standard politics in the run up to the elections, compliance with the law + performance with the policies = presidency for American democracy (3), which is the common denominator in either side of the equation.

Documented or undocumented migrants?
The issues about illegal migration campaigns are (1) sanction and compensation for the damages of the past; (2) discontinuation and so mitigation of damages for the future; (3) security, living standards and development policies in the home states of migrants’ origin.
