His speech to the democratic national convention in 1988 (I think 88) was a watershed moment for me. I was always a Democrat but that speech gave me words to express why I vote blue.

Goes to show you we can love people who vote for the other candidate

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