What are the specific platforms or talking points over which voters would be lost, again?
I support Biden’s approaches to the vaccine and I am willing to give him a fresh look on everything.

I, too, support policies with which I agree, regardless of the politician that they come from.

Okay but I will tell you if you can’t convince someone by now
By now?
These vaccines are years ahead of what would be considered a normal life cycle.
Caution at this point may or may not be wise, but it is certainly normal.
https://www.historyofvaccines.org/content/articles/vaccine-development-testing-and-regulation
Vaccine development is a long, complex process, often lasting 10-15 years and involving a combination of public and private involvement.
First Steps: Laboratory and Animal StudiesExploratory Stage
This stage involves basic laboratory research and often lasts 2-4 years.
The pre-clinical stages often lasts 1-2 years

So I would say to that I would like to hear hesitancy from epidemiologists, scientists, education leaders and business folks.
Look at the demographics of those for and those against.

I believe they all agree this is uncharted territory.
Caution has deliberately been abandoned, this was well publicized.
There is no real basis for acting smug about your faith in the vaccine. -

I'm sure there are some who aren't idiots. I haven't seen one.
Every reservation I've heard that doesn't involve numerology, Bill Gates, or the word "plandemic" could be put completely at ease by reading one damn article about how the vaccines work, how they were manufactured, and how they were approved.
I mean shit, I had similar concerns. Because I'm not a virologist. So I educated myself.
No, you're not a virologist. You're not in my league. And I'm not in George's or Bach's. And they aren't in a virologist's league and those guys may not have a good handle on primary research. And even the best and brightest are still guessing a good bit.
So, at the end of the day, you are left with an opinion. Better informed than some, but an opinion, nonetheless.
Therefore, what constitutes an idiot? Anybody who doesn't agree with you?
Jon doesn't agree with me on a range of issues. Hmmm...I've always suspected Jon was an idiot. Or maybe it's the other way around...Hmmm...
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Jon doesn't agree with me on a range of issues. Hmmm...I've always suspected Jon was an idiot. Or maybe it's the other way around...Hmmm...Being able to create a vaccine with your own two hands is different from understanding how a vaccine is created. I consider my reading comprehension skills sufficient enough to understand scientific information. For one, because I worked at it. For two, because it's been my job on many occasions for the past two decades. So when scientists who worked on the vaccines explain how the vaccines work, I consider that information more credible than political preferences.
Reading and critical thinking are fundamental. If you wanted to believe that the Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J vaccines are "opinion," that would be your right to do so, but I'd absolutely call you a moron.
Please love yourself.

There is no real basis for acting smug about your faith in the vaccine.550,000 deaths in the US alone and a vaccine platform that has actually been in the works for decades. I’m not being smug I think I can mathematically prove what is more likely to kill you.

The longer it takes to vaccinate everyone the easier it is mutant strains to develop which will render the current vaccines less effective. This is a race folks and as it is booster shots are already almost a foregone conclusion.
So there is more joy to be had with those that won’t take it.

BS - major in biology, medical technology, minor in chemistry (I need one more course for a triple major). I have forgotten more stuff than I know, at this point.
You're damn right I'll play this game with some two-bit, self taught expert, that couldn't function for thirty minutes in a medical lab, research lab or in an acute healthcare setting.
Now, go run your damn head and tell me just how damn good you are...While I laugh my ass off...

Please pass your calculations along to the experts who normally take years to approve a new vaccine. I'm sure you could save lives.

C'mon, motorscooter...I want your bonafides. I want your certifications. I want to know just what pile of books you are standing on that makes you an expert.
I doubt you've got anything that qualifies you as such. All you have is a self-informed opinion and a simmering hate against people who will not conform to your idea of vaccination.
I don't consider myself that smart. I consider that other people do have different viewpoints on vaccination, the spread of COVID and ramifications of lockdowns vs. open societies.
I guess I'm dumb enough that I don't consider everybody else not breathing in the same stratosphere as me (I, for you fucking English majors) an idiot.

That's a bizarre proposition. If I'm getting this right, basically you seem to want me to tell you what my education and professional work has been so that you can make fun of it. I think I'll pass. Without my answering, you've already made up your mind that I don't know what I'm talking about, so I don't see the point. (Which, you gotta admire the irony, considering this is in part a discussion about critical thinking.)
Either what I'm saying makes sense or not on the merits of the argument, not what degree I have or what my background is. If I need to pass an appeal to authority fallacy in order to discuss this with you, I'll just leave you to calling me stupid.

No, I don't want to make fun of it. I'm going to cut it to pieces with a chainsaw, douse it with gasoline and set it ablaze, while dancing around the fire.
