(10,928 posts)Can't stand being lied to so you can attempt to imagine what Trump's 17,000 or so lies have been like for me to endure.
Elizabeth Warren said last night that Joe in person is who we see at the podium. He's sincere and honest.
For decades, Joe was at or near the bottom of the list of Senators by descending net worth - which ought to tell you he hasn't been cashing in like many of them have.
It's why what Trump was up to was so heinous. It's like what they did to John Kerry. Kerry was a true war hero so they swiftboated him to bring his heroism - an outstanding characteristic - into question. With Ukraine, they wanted to damage Biden's outstanding integrity he'd spent his life establishing to help them beat him in 2020. So even Trump and the GOP recognize Joe's integrity.
As Obama was preparing to leave office, listen to what he had to say about Joe
Barack isn't making that stuff up. They became good friends.
He carefully selected Joe and feels he made a really good decision.
I like Bernie, Elizabeth, Pete, Amy, Kamala, Beto, Cory, Andrew, Michael, etc
They are/were a great group of candidates. Really good people as we saw again in Elizabeth's interview last night.
Joe fits right in. He's a really good person who wants many of the things the other candidates want. The big difference is how we get there with many of the candidates. Joe is probably more pragmatic and realistic.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
