BRACK: Bulk of Americans can see through Trump debate lies

By Elliott Brack  |  Watching presidential debates is not high on my agenda. Most years, these debates do little for real news, and serve mostly as arguments between  the vying candidates.  But for 2024, I sat for nearly two hours and listened to Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

ANOTHER VIEW: Could a third party create an earthquake in November?

By Jack Bernard  |  As a former Republican Party elected official in Georgia and county party chair, I left the GOP and became an active Democrat because Trump is a narcissist would-be dictator. He puts the good of himself before our nation. But I believe he will be elected because of Biden’s continuing inability to adequately publicize his many achievements, plus the influence of third-party candidates in select swing states.

BRACK: Democrats need not worry; Biden will prevail

By Elliott Brack  |  The way we see it, the Democratic Party should not be worried about the coming presidential election. President Joe Biden should trounce ex-President Donald Trump this fall.

BRACK: Electoral College could give Trump office again

By Elliott Brack  |  Even though Georgia and a majority of the states in our country have not voted in the presidential primary yet, it looks like the nominees are settled. It appears to be Joe Biden for the Democrats and Donald Trump for the Republicans, a rematch of 2020.

BRACK: 14th Amendment could come into play with debt crisis

By Elliott Brack |  Much of the talk in Washington these days is about whether the Democrats and Republicans can come together with an agreement to raise the national debt limit.  If that doesn’t happen, it could mean that our nation will default on its debt. That’s never happened in the 227 years of our country.
