14. Why be so angry?

The OP is correct. These are extremely difficult times. President Biden is threading through multiple
crises with the skills and acumen that few have. We are on the verge of losing our democracy. Our government
and our capitol have been violently attacked. We could easily be on the verge of nuclear disaster in Europe and
slip in a third world war. We are slowly emerging from a worldwide pandemic that has taken the lives of over
1,000,000. And our world faces it's most dangerous and threatening crisis ever with climate
instability. History will see this as a perilous time. I am one who is deeply grateful that Joesph R. Biden
has sacrificed his later years to guide us through these times.

He first came to my attention way back, Emrys Nov 2022 #22
Right! I definitely had a good opinion of him from the Obama years but didn't know his whole story LymphocyteLover Nov 2022 #29
Yes! And I'm assuming (and hoping) Biden has none of the womanizing issues Bill Clinton had LymphocyteLover Nov 2022 #17
the 70% is "of Democrats" over all it is around 40% Hamlette Nov 2022 #19
