Screaming about another gaffe by VP Biden does not shake his supporters up one iota [View all]

You might think it does.. and wait for someone to say we cannot support him anymore because he says turns a date around etc etc etc.. I know, I know..

"Its Disqualifying"..

He has turned things around all his life.. and he will in the future if he is President.. it is what he does.. guess what ..most of us do the same thing.. we just do not have someone having a full blown hissy fit about it .. it just passes

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