voting? reporter: well, fred, president biden has tried to hammer away at his message that he believes republicans would pose a greater risk if they take vol of the house and senate. all of this coming as democrats control could be in jeopardy over economic discontent among voters. the president was here in joliet, illinois campaigning alongside house democrat in a competitive district. and he really zeroed in on on plans to lower prescription drug costs and preserve social security and medicare, programs that the president has argued would be on the chopping block if republicans get control of congress. and the president, as he talked about social security and medicare, had choice words for protesters on the issue of those who say democrats are part of socialism. generations of americans have counted on it, and it works. you didn t have social security, the poverty rate for those over 65 would be four times what it is now. four times. i love those signs when i came in,
