Vp Biden opened his office in Iowa City yesterday,, at State Fair today

and it was so packed I could not get my car parked to get there..

He is at State Fair today.. in face I think all the candidates will be speaking at State Fair this weekend.. and its interesting because everyone can talk to the candidates including the republicans.. 2016 Trump brought in his helicopter to give rides to the kids..


Up till now it has been the Democratic activists who have been so tuned in.. once fair hits.. everyone tunes in.. now the fun really begins..

This is why, unless you know for sure you do not have a chance.. most people stay in the race in Iowa.. because once fair hits.. the average voter has tuned in..

its a zoo.. and I wish everyone could be here to cheer on their favorite.. it is a great time..




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