Part of the issue is when people say there is no middle ground... they fail to see that Biden is actually a center moderate. He plays the game well too by allowing things to take forever to get done, as it is intended. Changes in our society, in a political / law sense, are designed to take a long time so there's ample debate and conversation about the issues so when the change does happen, it's been talked to death.

In terms of moderates a real moderate would be.

Pro gun and pro gun / ammo tax and limitations on "assault weapons"... And while the assault weapon moniker is a misdirection / lie, Biden is a moderate centrist because he supports both positions. He's also a populist on abortion. An extreme minority of people are pro life for any reason. I don't mean to burst your bubble, but people don't get abortions because they're convenient or fun activities. I know several people that got pregnant via violent home invasion rape. The abortion was one of the most difficult decisions they ever made and still haunts them to this day. Those getting abortions for fun or repeatedly are not good people and are an extreme minority. Free healthcare and college shouldn't even be a left right issue. The right makes it an issue... But my wife became a surgeon in 1993 and all 12 years of her education and surgical residency cost $12,000. It's currently around $26,000 a year IN STATE for an undergrad degree. While the argument of free or not free college can be debated, it rate of tuition / cost increase cannot be justified. The right likes to blame corporate healthcare profiteers for healthcare cost... and at the same time defend them by refusing efforts to shut down their predatory practices. Tuition and health insurance are both scams that need to be squashed. A 0.5% tax on automated computer stock market trades where not a single person is involved would more than cover free education and healthcare for everyone.One of our kids is going to college in Paris in a couple of years. She will get an undergrad in English. After airfare, tuition, and renting an apartment in Paris for 4 years, the cost is about $40,000 less than going to the in State school here. College tuition doesn't have to be free, but it shouldn't also come with a $100,000 cost for a basic undergrad degree. Especially when that cost can be completely covered without raising taxes on paychecks for anyone.

Those are just some of the issues.

The problem is when there's a real moderate, the left and right are so far to the edges, the moderate is deemed too far the other direction. This is why liberals think I'm an ultra conservative and republicans think I'm a hippie commie leftist.

I'm not, I'm actually in the middle.

Biden is none of that.
