No. the reality of the situation is that you are suggesting it fine to not work for Biden IF hlthe2b Aug 2020 #18

Setting aside how YOU would vote, do you think Biden would have a harder time getting elected StarfishSaver Aug 2020 #14

My guess is no, but seeing as how he made a promise to select a female VP, LisaL Aug 2020 #16
