> Springsteen began: “I’m supporting Kamala Harris for President and Tim Walz for Vice President, and opposing Donald Trump and JD Vance – here’s why. We are shortly coming upon one of the most consequential elections in our nation’s history. Perhaps not since the Civil War has this country felt as politically, spiritually and emotionally divided as it does than at this moment. It doesn’t have to be this way. The common values, the shared stories that make us a great and united nation are waiting to be rediscovered and retold once again. Now that will take time, hard work, intelligence, faith, and women and men with a national good guiding their hearts.”
> He then turned his attention to Donald Trump: “Donald Trump is the most dangerous candidate for President in my lifetime. His disdain for the sanctity of our constitution, the sanctity of democracy, the sanctity of the rule of law, and the sanctity of the peaceful transfer of power should disqualify him from the office of President ever again. He doesn’t understand the meaning of this country, its history, or what it means to be deeply American.”
> He added on his support for Harris: “On the other hand, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are committed to a vision of this country that respects and includes everyone, regardless of class, religion, race, your political point of view, or sexual identity.”
> He concluded: “And they want to grow our economy in a way that benefits all, not just the few, like me, on top. That’s the vision of America I’ve been consistently writing about for 55 years. Now everybody sees things different, and I respect your choice as a fellow citizen, but like you, I’ve only got one vote. And it’s one of the most precious possessions that I have. That’s why, come November 5, I’ll be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”

As long as the electoral college remains, his one vote in California is not precious at all.

It’s really well done. Perfect actually from the backdrop to what he says and how he says it.
