Joe is being inspirational and not one tiny verbal mistake to muckle on to. Mighty Joe hits a home run....

Joe has done a wonderful job! I love when he says we must heal as a country. Very true because we need to heal after the malignancy of Trump.

Yes, I have had my issues with his past positions, but no one is perfect - even Sanders. I think Biden is a good leader for this time.

Had this going through my head. Guess with what this election has at stake, freedom vs fascism and the fight for our planet. The song fits.

Joe wasn’t my first (or second or third) pick in the primaries but I’ll be proud to vote for him and for Kamala!!

But to ignore the literal thousands of crimes trump has committed to our people and to out very souls as human beings. It left me empty. Even though I am among those who would vote for him no matter what.. There is a level of "what world are we living in? To ignore the reality of the last 3.8 years?

We HAVE to remember. Most of those on the right (sole Fox News watchers) have never even been privy to 90% of what trump has done.
