 NNPA NEWSWIRE — The question is why?  The attempted political lynching of President Joe Biden has more to do with disingenuous political infighting than difficulties at a nationally televised political debate.  What are the real motives from all of those who are calling for President Biden to step down?

   A divided Democratic Party will ensure President Biden’s run for the 2024 presidency ends in defeat. It’s crucial that Democrats solidly support the incumbent presidential candidate, Joe Biden. Despite his recent debate performance, we must remember his impeccable leadership and impactful accomplishments for the American people. Let’s not forget that Democrats United are undefeatable.

    The Democratic Party is having a proverbial meltdown since the June 27, 2024, debate debacle by President Biden. Democrats can’t get out of their own way. Some believe that President Biden should step aside for what appears to be his failing health.  Others in the party are standing with the president, saying in essence, he should remain in the race. What are you saying? Should he stay or should he leave ?

        The US Supreme Court’s July 1 decision to grant absolute immunity to a President’s official acts is indeed, as Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) wrote on X, “a sad day for America” and “our democracy.” Donald Trump and future presidents are evidently now free to follow their worst instincts if they don’t like the result of elections—or anything else.

       With this concept in mind, it is with significant curiosity and extreme consternation that NABLEO’s Board of Directors, National Body, and I as NABLEO Chairman observe Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox’s arbitrary and unexplained decision to demote Deputy Superintendent Eddy Chrispin to the rank of Sergeant, which was Chrispin’s previous civil service rank prior to being promoted by former Commissioner William Gross in January 2021.

     But there’s a third path forward: a path of activism and nonviolent resistance. Knowing about the path doesn’t preclude voting. But knowing about it can help a voter make a more informed choice this November. By knowing about it, some voters might be even be inspired take up actions of their own – above and beyond the marking of a ballot.
