The article discusses the lessons that President Biden can learn from the Democratic Party's disastrous 1968 convention in Chicago. It highlights the importance of appealing to both the party's left and right wings in order to secure victory. The article suggests that Biden should address the concerns of progressive activists while also maintaining support from working-class voters who may be skeptical of the progressive agenda. It emphasizes the need for Biden to avoid the calamity of the 1968 convention and make peace both internationally and domestically in order to effectively communicate his message to the rest of the country.
