Come on folks, please? [View all]

We have an abundant wealth of talent that is vying for the Democratic Presidential nomination. Huge. Wish we had a few less players as it is getting confusing. They, the unknown will drift away soon.

Fact is we are in a Constitutional crisis. Symone Sanders said the other day on AM Joy, that we are in dark times. She is correct, Symone, well known as a BS spokesperson has become a senior adviser to Biden. That woman kills it on CNN as a known analysis. She is brilliant.

It's time to listen. And a time to cry. It is time that we all stop fighting and learn to rebuild the base we are standing on. Stop tearing down a foundation that has taken years/ centuries to build. Blood sweat and tears to build. Stop tearing out the bottom bricks to destroy the foundation. Just stop! Fact is. If you want a tree to grow stronger you trim the branches to make it flourish, you most certainly do not cut it off at the roots to regrow something that will take hundreds of years to flourish again. Take out a few of the top bricks to make the bottom ones stronger.

Fact is we have a huge foundation with the ACA. Build on it. Stop killing what we already have. Build on it as it was always meant to be.

Women. Build with them. Their rights, human rights, their bodies theirself. Gay, Native American, POC .

Jaysus, this isn't a competition of he said she said. It is our lives and our future.

Wake up.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
