Think POTUS Biden faced more challenges and with more success than would have thought possible considering the circumstances. POTUS Biden is a hero of our times. Glad that VP Harris was ready to fill the spot and relieved that a squabble over a Biden replacement failed to ignite.

There is a great need to take most of the money out of elective politics in the USA. There is a great need to reboot the court and legal system to hold accountable pols; their staff and consultants; and donors.

Citizens deserve more say in the selection of candidates. Have been Democratic voter in every election for over 50 years. Would have preferred a slate of potential Democratic candidates more to my preference just to vote on in the primary. Party leaders and donor should pay more respect to rank and file voters for starters.

Feel fortunate that Kamala Harris et al are off to a stunningly effective start to her campaign.
