I can't tell you who to caucus for, but I can tell you WHY this Iowa woman is caucusing for Joe Biden. He has a proven track record getting things done in Washington.I'm so sick of the partisan bickering that keeps this nation deadlocked. I'm looking for a true "uniter" (not GWB's type of uniting either). No one is better on foreign policy, and the next presidency is going to be nothing but foreign policy.
No one has a better plan for Iraq, social security, healthcare or education...and by better I mean realistic and workable. Biden has tireslessly supported veterans and the military (a very important issue to me as well), more so than any other candidate.
If I had to describe him in one word, it would be "practical". The current administration has us so deep in the "doo" that we can't afford to replace him with idealistic "pie in the sky" campaign promises. We need someone who can hit the ground running and get something accomplished, and I believe Biden can (and will) do that.
I like several of the other candidates, but Biden is the only one I trust to handle the mess we're currently in. I always love to hear my fellow Iowans examining candidates!Good luck with your candidate, whomever you might choose.
