Dear Van, as always, you are right on. I just hope that you have been able to send these clear tips to Kamala already, as we all know her speech is already written! I would so love to hear her say things like, "Trump is Mr. Inflation" and “Donald Trump wants to lock you up. I want to lift you up!” Fingers crossed!

Oh, Lord! Please, call her up! And, while you’re at it, restate your comments from your interview with Jonah Platt. Yours is the voice we need!

I agree with those talking points, Van. I would also add a reminder to Michigan muslims who feel she has not been outspoken enough about the horrific suffering in Gaza, to look at the alternative candidate. Remind them of Trumps Muslim bans. Also, that this is no time to sit this one out or protest vote for Stein. She needs to remind voters that extremists Trump and Netanyahu are both trying to stay out of jail. Trump is a convicted felon who would not be allowed to vote in New York. Ask the crowd, when is his sentencing date again? Appeal to the young people that Trump doesn't read. He doesn't know how government works, or that Puerto Ricans are Americans. His mother was an immigrant. I could go on but I am pulling for her and praying for her. (In addition to knocking doors.)

Can you are so right on!!! As always we totally see eye to eye. As one who has been canvassing and talking to undecideds, explaining and spelling out what is going to happen with prices is SO iMPoRTANT! She needs to say the word prices (not just inflation) and I love your idea of King of Inflation! The stop and frisk thing is also crucial! I talked with a few black men who might have been more convinced if I had brought that up. And how mass deportation will shut down so many businesses and make our economy fall apart. Please try and get this message spelled out in simple relatable terms through your contacts with people in the campaign…thank you as always for knowing what is important.
