This may be the Biden gaff that a lot of people were holding their breath about. The question is who comes through the door that Joe has cracked open.

5. Beto has been very consistent on women's rights, not only on choice

But he always calls for ratifying the ERA too.

as well as the gag rule, etc. There is no middle ground when it comes to women’s health issues.

9. Beto is the right candidate at the right time in history

Anyone who doubts that needs to watch the Running With Beto documentary. America NEEDS Beto and what he stirred in Texas on a national level. Biden is NOT the one. He never was. People miss Obama and that is who those supporting Biden mistakenly think they are supporting. Biden is no Obama. He was a laid back friendly guy who appealed to the rust belt and filled an electoral need. Democrats really need to stop romanticizing him and take an honest look at other candidates.

12. +1. Biden is not the only Democrat who can handle Donald Trump

BTW Donald Trump is a shameless psychopath. He doesn't debate like normal people. Facts and logic and decorum are meaningless to him - all he does is lie and bullshit. This is how he debates:

Biden: "I have many years of experience in the White House..."

Trump: "Sleepy Joe, how many years were you PRESIDENT? Zero. Zero. I AM the President. I have PRESIDENTIAL experience. I have TWO MILLION federal employees working for ME, including all the soldiers and all the generals. You are not qualified because you are not presidential material. You have NO PRESIDENTIAL EXPERIENCE! And you don't have THE STAMINAH!!!!!"

Trump goes on to accuse Biden of molesting women, says it was caught on tape, says the Deep State is hiding many bad things about Biden - by the way McCain shouldn't have let himself captured - says Biden is colluding with Russia and China and deserves to be charged with treason blah blah
