Joe Biden throws his hat into the ring
I’m using this picture because this is what Joe Biden looked like when I met him for the first time.. that would be 1975 or 76. I had been asked to come to Delaware to run voter registration workshops for the DNC..Biden was new to the Senate he had been in office about two years.(hey that shows how old I am ) I like Joe..he is honest.. you can turn your back on him and you won’t get a knife in your back..( Cory Booker )..his presence on the ticket was a big reason for Obama’s victory…BUT…Joe is what Joe is..maybe he won’t hurt us ..but he won’t help us move forward. Remember Joe during the Anita Hill vs. Clarence Thomas thing?…I actually would say the same thing about Bernie..He won’t hurt us..but he won’t move us forward, Bernie has what we used to call when I built rockets aerodynamic drag..So many of his followers are the worst of the “toxic white male” liberal..you know …the guys who think nobody is a “progressive” unless they do what I say guys. ( and a lot of them are white women too) I wouldn’t even ask a Black or Brown voter to follow those people to a dogfight..and this is a national election….And to Joe Biden ….with respect..I will say “thanks Joe ,,,but no thanks this time. Like I said two days ago I have not made up my mind who I will support in the primary.but it won’t be a white male..and it won’t be a chicken hearted asskisser like Cory Booker..But when the primary is over I will work for who ever gets the nod….you gotta keep your “eyes on the prize” …it’s about beating Trump right now..
