(255,576 posts)The thing is, Joe Biden is certainly the most experienced president in our entire history - with 36 years in the Senate and 8 years in the Executive Branch as VP where he was chosen for his foreign policy experience. I truly don't get this national derangement, people who would vote for a convicted criminal and is inexplicably allowed to run to lead the government he attempted to overthrow!
I'm counting on TFG having lost by even more million votes each time he ran, but I'm still anxious about his constant election denial and whatever plans he's making this time around to incite his deluded "supporters..."

(255,576 posts)And I'm learning a little more about how our immigration/citizenship laws work now. My maternal grandparents were immigrants, both from Poland. And I know that my grandfather, who was a young man at the time, was made a citizen and sent to France to fight for his new country. When he came back he met and married my grandmother, so I never understood why that didn't make her a citizen too. He died young, the same year my mother left for college, so I never met him.
However, I also know that my grandmother eventually became a citizen in time to vote for LBJ and I remember that she had that classic portrait of JFK hanging in her living room.
