Jamil Jackson, a registered Democrat voter and senior at the University of Chicago, shared his perspective on the efforts of President Biden and Vice President Harris to win over black voters in Philadelphia. The city is set to launch a new Black Voter Initiative, aiming to secure support from the community.
As a Democrat voter, Jackson expressed his desire to hear more from President Biden, citing concerns about unanswered questions and a lack of press conferences. He highlighted issues such as the economy, job prospects for recent graduates, and the need for clarity on various policies.
Comparing the messages of President Biden and former President Trump directed at black voters, Jackson found Trump's approach more resonant. He criticized what he perceived as tokenism in Biden's outreach efforts and praised Trump's focus on unity and delivering on promises.
The upcoming event in Philadelphia where President Biden is expected to address black voters and introduce the new initiative will shed more light on his message and plans for engaging with the community.
