The vice president's nomination will put abortion rights, cost control and maintaining insurance coverage at the center of the fall campaign -- where they belong.
As a hyperactive, healthy 85 year-old, I've been urging President Biden to pass the torch to a younger generation for nearly two years and am thrilled that he finally placed country above personal preference for the power of the presidency. He chose not to be RBG thank God.
As a strategic move, his timing was right. Biden's decision has changed the dynamics of the campaign 180 degrees. Trump’s selection of J. D. Vance is already hurting his chances. The anti-immigrant white supremacist wing of the Republican Party considers his partly South Asian children “mongrels.” Harris is both African-American and South Asian. Meanwhile the media focus on “too old to run” shifts to the word salad guy who would be 82 at the end of his term.
Another seriously troubling Trump policy would be the lifetime limits on Medicaid as revealed in Project 2025. Combine that with block grants and all states will soon look like Mississippi.
Thank you! An extremely important commentary that reminds healthcare and its press that it should be about people’s health not shadow and unlikely threats

Excellent reporting and analysis Merrill.
