Apr 2019

and after giving her more than a week of "benefit-of-the-doubt," watching her interviews, her comments, her body language, I find her lacking in sincerity and suspect in motivations.

I won't apologize for that. All she had to do is tell Biden she doesn't want contact, but no, she waits 5 years to hit him just prior to launching his campaign--and after admitting she doesn't want him to run and that she has supported Sanders. If that isn't suspicious to ANYONE else, then I truly don't know what to say to you.

Her "benefit-of-the-doubt" has expired.

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