Shows so much about Joe that he took this kid under his wing and helped him with the stuttering issue.

Then we moved to Florida. But still a Buckeye at heart!

I hope Biden wins both Ohio and Florida, but we really need Florida! Go Florida!!

(5,639 posts)He is getting out the vote pretty good in his area, and people seem to be fed up with trump, so I am hopeful.
I live in Texas now, I know, I move a lot...lol. Now we're trying to turn Texas blue and we just might! Texas used to be a blue state and it will be again!
Go Texas!

It's such a contrast to Republicans making fun of disabilities to the Democrats lifting up the sacred worth of every person.
