In 20 years, former senator Carol Moseley Braun is back on the campaign trail for Joe ..😎👩🏾

It's a balmy Saturday in January on the College of Southern Nevada's North Las Vegas campus. Inside the student lounge, a lively political summit is underway. Fliers about climate change, gender justice and jobs are scattered across tables. Pamphlets tout presidential candidates. An oversize American flag is draped above the makeshift stage

After a few more platitudes, the lady of the hour strides to the podium. Wearing a dark blue suit and mid-heel leather boots, Carol Moseley Braun — the first African American woman elected to the U.S. Senate and later U.S. ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa — looks traditional in the manner of old-school politicians. And she has come to this desert metropolis of palm trees and casinos to ask Nevada voters to bet on another old-guard pol, former vice president Joe Biden

Moseley Braun calls such criticism “nitpicking.” Biden, she believes, “is made for this moment.” “He has spent a lifetime working government as a force for good and has made a difference for millions of people who would have been left behind,” she says. “He really has a genuine kindness to him that I think is missing in our politics. That’s why I’m out on the campaign trail for him now
