"Biden should also campaign with his excellent qualified Cabinet members.

When you elect a President, you get the President AND a team. Assess the team and how they work and support America's best interests. Are they qualified? Are they competent? Are they vindictive? Are they racist? Are they corrupt? Are they serving just the President? Are they members/authors of a guide to fascism determined to take away rights and institute a loyalty to Trump over country test for all government workers?"
