We Are At The Crossroad

Democratic leaders pushed a message of competence and unity in the first night of the party’s convention. Former Ohio Governor John Kasich endorsed Biden saying that our country is at the crossroad.

Michelle Obama in her speech said that right now kids in this country are seeing what happens when we stop requiring empathy of one another. They are looking around and wondering if we’ve been lying to them this whole time about who we are and what we truly value.

New York Governor Cuomo said, “COVID is the symptom and not the illness. Our nation is in crisis and in many ways COVID is just a metaphor.”

Democrats also accused President Trump of trying to slow down the mail delivery in the election time, but he said that he had encouraged everybody to speed up the mail and not to slow down the mail. Newly appointed Postmaster General Louis DeJoy agreed to testify before Congress next week.

This is really a critical time for all of us and we need to take action now. The United States of America is in a pandemic crisis and our unemployment rate is the highest since the great depression. We really don’t care what politicians say. We care about what we can put on the dinner table for our families.

We are living in two different worlds right now: in one world live those people who hold the power of the country with their luxurious lifestyle, and in the other world are the poor people suffering and just trying to survive.

我们的国家在十字路口

在民主党视讯大会上，共和党籍的前俄亥俄州州长卡西在会中非常激动的呼吁，我们的国家正走在十字路口，今年的大选是非常关键的时刻，我们需要的是国家的团结而不是分裂， 如今，我们处於前所未有之艰难困境， 我们的选择决定未来世世代代之前途。

开幕大会之第一天晚上，由前民主党总统参选人参议员彬德森及米雪奥巴马為主要演讲人，她们同声谴责川普对国民之无情，国家经济一蹶不振，普通国民面对饥饿，缴不出房租， 三千万人失业，十七万人因新冠病毒丧生，在国际上我们失去威信， 因為我们深爱这个国家和人民， 我们一定要选定拜登成為下任总统来拯救国家。

民主党人士同时指责，川普总统蓄意阻挠邮局递送总统大选选票，故意延迟病毒检测，阻止通讯投票，是件违法之行為。

拜登选举之政见包括：全民健康保险， 基本工资最少每小时十五元 ，给予全国国民最基本之生活保障，他并且保证当选后立即重返国际卫生组织及有关之国际组织。

这场前所未有之选战 ，将是有史以来最激烈的一次 ，我们大家必须积极参与， 在这歷史的十字路口做出最佳的选择。
