Dustin,

Al Gore lost to George Bush because he was UNLIKABLE -- the same reason Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Michael Dukakis, and Walter Mondale lost.

Democrats pushed the UNLIKABLE with Joe Biden. Without COVID, he probably would have lost.

The LIKABLES include Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, JFK, and FDR. Donald Trump was LIKABLE. In the UK, Boris Johnson and Tony Blair.

UNLIKABLES needing extraordinary circumstances to become president include Ron DeSantis and Elizabeth Warren. In the UK, Jerome Corbyn was GOD UNLIKABLE.

The last UNLIKABLE (apart from Biden) to make it to the presidency was Richard Nixon, who clawed his way and waited years for those charismatic Kennedies to get out of the bloody way.

Let's hope Kamala Harris makes it to the White House before becoming UNLIKABLE.

Best.
