Yes, that’s what elections are for. But that’s not the topic.

There’s nothing about leadership mentioned in “A New Way Forward”. And nothing about her leadership in the platform. So let’s stay on topic.

Yes, a leader will choose the route. The question is, what’s wrong with the route we are on that we need a new one?
Nothing's wrong with the route. The only difference is a change in leadership, and that change in leadership is mandated by the Constitution. New leaders come with new ideas, new directions to go in, new ways forward.

You asked what was wrong with the current way forward, I'm trying to address that. Do you have a point here, or are you just going to label every response I have to your questions as off topic?

-- A2SG, not much point to responding if that's all you're going to say....

You keep mentioning the change in leadership. Leadership isn’t mentioned or implied in the phrase, nor in the platform. It is almost as if you think if you mention it enough, it will make it true.

You asked:
What’s new about it? What’s wrong with the current way forward?
I answered.

What's new is the change in who's leading the country. A new leader brings different ideas when they're leading, which may not be the same as the previous one, even if that new leader helped the former one with his ideas.

As to the second question, there is nothing wrong with the current way forward, just that Kamala Harris isn't Joe Biden, and what she brings to the table as President won't be the same things Biden did.

You are, of course, free to disagree...and to not vote for her.

-- A2SG, you asked, I answered....not my problem if you don't like or agree with my answer, though.....

Once again with the leadership thing that’s never mentioned.

I know the feeling. You just keep repeating the most easily disprovable nonsense. Your confidence is admirable, though.
"Disprovable"????

What have you "disproven," exactly?

-- A2SG, missing the point ain't the same as disproving it, ya know.....

I’ve disproven, by referencing her platform where the phrase originates, that leadership isn’t what is meant. If it was, it would be articulated in the summary paragraph.

You mean her platform, where she describes the direction in which she, as President, wants to lead the country?

-- A2SG, well, you got me there....

Yeah. And apparently it’s new. So what’s wrong with the old?

Apparently the Harris-Walz ticket since they are promoting a new way.
Nope. It's new because a change is mandated by the Constitution.

-- A2SG, since the previous guy ain't running, much to poor Donny's chagrin...

She branded her agenda as a “New Way Forward” despite her already being at the helm for nearly four years in the Biden-Harris administration. Nowhere in her platform did she explain how her approach would differ from what she is currently doing.
This is true ... she lacks on actual substance ... "New Way Forward" .... what is that exactly?

Debates don't provide the platform for candidates to fully put forth policy details.

They don't have to promote it. Preserve, protect and defend, sure, but no promotion is necessary.

-- A2SG, it's already the source of our government and laws, what would they be promoting it to...?

I don’t know. Your last attempt explaining their motto was “It's new because a change is mandated by the Constitution.”

I’m starting to think you can’t keep up with your own excuses for them.

I'm not excusing a single thing.

Harris' plans are new because she wasn't President before, and she's running for the job. As to why there will be a change who is President, that's mandated by the Constitution.

Clear?

-- A2SG, figured you might know this stuff, since it's been going on for a while now, every four years.....
