16. I give a fuck

I give a fuck that the Septuagenarian candidate you deride has Trump soiling his golf pants.

I give a fuck that Joe Biden brings White House experience to the table. Picking up the pieces after Don the Con is no time for OJT.

I give a fuck that he is, despite all his gaffes, someone who can connect with that very important Middle America voter in places like Rural Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. This help block trump's path to a second term.

I admire Beto's youth and enthusiasm and would love to see him in the White House, someday.

Perhaps after a term or two in the Senate or a couple terms as governor of Texas he might be ready for prime time. Honestly. I'm leery of somebody who hasn't won a statewide election (AG, Governor, US Senator, etc.) running for the biggest office in the nation.

If he does become the nominee I will definitely vote for him but for now I'm sticking with time tested over the New Big Thing

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