Episode notes
Debate Strategy
- Focus on speaking directly to the people during a debate.
- Remember that it's a chance to connect with voters, not just argue with your opponent.
Biden's Debate Focus
- In the upcoming debate, Biden should remind people why they voted for him and what he can still achieve.
- He should emphasize the positive potential of his policies and plans.

- Voters are more concerned with everyday issues than the president's age.
- However, age becomes relevant when it raises doubts about Biden's capacity to address their concerns.
