The more I see of Joe Biden

Ok. I did once run across Donald Trump in NY in the 80’s. It was outdoors and he was surrounded by bodyguards. I was socially distanced from him but was not wearing a mask. His spewing can travel great distances but I don’t think he had infected me with his NPD. (And if I was one day accused of those traits, I’m sure I would deny it.)

That has never been said of the British before. And Americans have never thought (out loud) my French wife to be “too frank”.

Yes bit of a joke, post amended. Wasn’t written to cause offense. Winston Churchill was born in Woodstock NY state may be a starting point name for entering politics…

Really? I thought he was born at Blenheim Palace, in the UK. His mother was American though.

Oh Peter, if only you could substitute over for across. :roll_eyes:

Woodstock in Oxfordshire, where Blenheim Palace is situated… so confusing all these place-names being reused, people get hopelessly lost sometimes.

Ptimary reason for voting for Biden - he’s sane.

If only…

I saw him coming out of the Plaza Hotel, which is on 5th Avenue. If he was shot on 5th Avenue, would the shooter get away with it (as he claims he would)?

Assume you are referring to Trump.

If this was a fair election everyone would of heard of the popular (not that you’d know it from the media), Jo Jorgensen! Kept off the media by the powers behind them aka the Republicans and Democrats

Only some.

I know of her. Libertarians are anti-socialist and for privatization. They are against national health care, want to withdraw from the U.N. and NATO, and are against raising taxes on the rich.
You can read her answers to questions here:

I do agree that more parties should be given media exposure. I think that there are over 50 political parties in the US, including several socialist parties and the Green Party, and I would like to see them get more exposure.

Is it just me don’t Biden look and move like a really old man he doesn’t look to have strength too handle the job

I think Biden probably wears less make-up. They are both old. They want an old white man, let’s hope they choose the less ghastly one.

How great is Biden do I looked at some interviews from some university’s in the us and the students said they would only vote for Biden not because the thinking he would be a good president just that they did not like trump I think the democrats picked the wrong person for the job

I suspect there’s quite a lot of Botox involved with Biden - I wonder if this plays into the Alzheimer’s claims as overuse tends to make people expressionless - which is also something people with dementia develop.

It’s really quite depressing though that the US presidential election offers two candidates who, have realistically a markedly non-zero chance of making it to the end of their term simply based on their current age.

At least Biden can ride a bicycle and is not a morbidly obese reckless superspreader. :biking_man:

Biden is merely a ‘stop-gap’ or more importantly a ‘stop Trump’ President which may suit some but will do nothing to change the US, does he actually have any policies?

Stop gap of 8 years that’s along time

He won’t do 8 years. Harris will pick up the baton.

If you have the interest and the time, the US Democratic Party platform is available at this link - https://democrats.org/where-we-stand/party-platform/
And it’s pretty progressive, without going overboard.
