Go figure, what a class act. I’ve said it before I have my issues with Senator Biden, as for President Biden, he’s done one a heck of a job, especially considering the malicious head wind of GOP dirty dealing and malicious lies fabrication.

Now we have Kamala Harris, and it’s a whole new ballgame. How long will it be before trump weasels out of that debate?

You know he will, because he knows the prosecutor will mop the floor with him. That said though, she hasn’t yet gotten the approval of the delegates. They could agree to the nomination before or during the DNC or they could pick someone else on or before the DNC. I think she has the best chance to rescue this election. She will get women votes, people of colour, and some white male votes. Not the never Dotarders might vote for her too. She might even get the votes of those who have finally seen through the dotard’s lies.

It’s not over yet. The DNC has their convention in August, which is when the delegates vote for the nominee of their party. This gives them three months to campaign hard and heavy. It’s hope, but not fault hope. There is still a good chance the Dems will win.

Hmmm, did a check and it’s “Obama and Pelosi silent”.

Why always with the poisonous spin? What makes you so so petty ?

Why not just wait and see, be better for your image then constantly going out of your way to make an a¶¶ out of yourself.

Don’t you have anything interesting to discuss?

Oh and how much do think We The People are worrying about what Obama, Pelosi think. Have you seen the news?

Has anybody spotted the bitter irony in this historic melodrama?

Here is Donald Trump, a convicted criminal, desperately trying to become president in order to be exempted from his crimes against individuals and the nation and avoid prison time.

Then there is Joe Biden who loves his country so much, that he voluntarily gives up the presidency so that a younger generation can take over and continue building a more perfect union.

This is almost like a Shakespearean play.

I believe she is going to win, especially from talking to friends and seeing people talk on FB and secondly, President Biden isn’t on his death bed. I have a lot of confidence that the prosecutor will mop floor with the 43 count convicted felon.

I suspect, and keep in mind, I campaigned for President Obama, that she will be the female version of Barack Obama. She will and has the women’s vote and she has the vote of people of colour. That’s practically half the nation right there. Then add the Never [vote for the] Orange Menace people, some will vote for her. Then add some undecided, as well as some white men who are Dems who also believe in women’s health care, saving the Constitution, etc… Kamala will without a doubt be another Barack Obama from what I’m seeing and feeling, despite the nay-saying trolls on this forum. The trolls are only here to knock down our confidence of the prosecutor mopping the floor with the convicted orange felon.

Go ahead and accuse, but I’m not voting for Kamala because she’s Black and Indian or because she’s a woman or because she’s may age, though that does help. I’m voting for her because she shares my values. She supports women’s health care, which includes abortion, she supports education, she supports health care in general, the list goes on and on. So if you believe I’m voting for her because she’s a Black woman (she’s both Black and Indian, just as Barack Obama is Black and white) and/or because she’s a woman, you’re sadly mistaken. It’s not just that. It’s the shared values we have. Then again, if you support that orange menace, then you have no worthy values IMO. BTW, I appreciate all the actions Kamala has done, because her actions are my values. Also, if you believe that, then why didn’t Paten Place Palin get my vote? She’s a woman, but I didn’t vote for her. Paten Place Palin was too stupid to get my vote and she didn’t share my values.
