Joe is knocking it out of the Ballpark....

Speaking from the gut, his heart, putting himself at the level of everyday Americans. Joe came from humble roots and really has never left those roots.

Joe Biden is connecting. The fact that FOX is showing this, has to unnerve the Trump base.

President Joe Biden has a nice ring to it.

I'll admit, I wasn't on Team Biden earlier this year, but was (of course) planning to vote on our nominee, whoever it was.

But when Joe Biden talks to average Americans, and talks about personal difficulties, he is untouchable.

In this regard, I think he is sometimes as good, if not better, than President Obama. And Obama is and always will be my favorite president!

And having been right there with President Obama during the healthcare fight I have high hopes that President Biden can get some serious improvements to the Affordable Care Act passed. Not to mention the nearly unimaginable task of cleaning up after Dirty Donnie.

highly qualified people to each position who will give him strong, expert advice. He's not going to pull BS out of his ass like Trump.

For Joe laid it out plain and clear what his intentions are and the American people will back that.

Joe Biden hit on all the points...Health Care, Jobs, National unity, Strong Military, handling COVID, Racial justice, spending to get the country going forward, and so much more.

Then again. Romney is the best positioned Republican and he's a practicing Mormon.

Joe's faith clearly guides and sustains him. So much tragedy that never derails him for long.

He’s also a fighter, and pushes back on bullies. He’s a man for the times.
