Not an easy choice

On Tuesday, November 5, the election for the 60th President and Vice President of the United States will be held. Harris versus Trump are the names of the top candidates. Walz and Vance have ambitions for vice president. Who are these people and what can we expect from them? The outcome of the election has global consequences and it is therefore important to listen carefully. Professor Markus Wagner from Wollongong University has come to the SBS Studio in Artarmon for a few answers. Professor Wagner studied law in Giessen, worked in New York, but also in Israel and he also knows the rest of the world. We start by asking why the originally chosen Democratic candidate, Joe Biden, is no longer standing for election?
