We're a minority when it comes to voting for President. We think about it, look at records and policy statements. Most people can't be bothered with any of that. It's a consumer society. People buy what is advertised the best.
Bloomberg is advertising more and better than any other Democratic candidate. Everyone is seeing Bloomberg ads every day. He's focusing on the broadcast TV network morning, evening, and nighttime news hours. He's been flooding those in Minnestota, a Super Tuesday state for a couple of months already. And it's not the same ad over and over again, like most candidates do. He has literally dozens of ads, and they're all outstandingly well done.
I think he can win in a number of states. The other candidates have not run a single ad in Minnesota. The March 3 primary is exactly three weeks from now. What are they waiting for? They're in for a surprise, I think.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
