Lets give these older pols the credit they deserve for even considering stepping up

I am talking, Biden, Sanders, Pelosi, even Warren.. these are people who have dedicated a large chunk of their lives to us.. trying to move the government along.. I am supporting VP Biden.. Because we will need his expertise.. in a way no new administration has ever had before.. Trump has run this country into the ground with our allies etc.. isolating us.. he runs it like some sleazy back room deal maker.. and fortunately we have been able to hang on so far.. but the damage has been done

So I am so thankful, that the older pols are still with us.. because we need them right now..and we need our younger pols stepping into positions of power pretty quickly here..but thank you older pols for offering to help clean up.. lucky to have you

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

I would never put my family through a campaign like the ones we have now. People are just mean as snot! It is going to take all generations to fix this mess. I love the energy of the young ones, I just wish they could respect those who came before them. None of the young women would be where they are without women like Speaker Pelosi and Senator Warren.
