Mr. President, I hope you see this video I'm posting. This precious woman — who knows her presidential history — speaks for the majority of Americans.
WARNING: Have some Kleenex handy. 😭

(4,056 posts)Joe needs to be out there stumping for Kamala Harris.
It will make this lady feel so much better about his new role as valued Presidential adviser.

(2,844 posts)before Kamala spoke, he pretty much said that he would be helping in the campaign.
He would be out there with her/for her.
It was quite moving. And then, Kamala spoke and tied it all together.
Saw this during the 2nd hour of Nicolle W.
and it was something to see.
I love this woman's sense of history. Would love for her to meet Joe. And Kamala.

His career, not just as President. And, he's responsible for bringing us our first black President, and if she gets the nomination and wins, our first woman President.

She said it well...

(262 posts)My mom passed away suddenly the night before thanksgiving. Her Birthday was November 7th and we were celebrating her 68th Birthday a few days after another mass shooting. My partner shared that Biden had said, “ Doctors will help you live, but nurses make you want to live” my mom was a retired and decorated nurse and this was the last time I saw her cry. She was so proud of her career and she loved Joe Biden because he is a good man. I’ve been conflicted the past few weeks, but I knew Joe would do what he thought was best for US. We need to respect his decision. No amount of bullying or strong arming would have stopped him if he knew he could win. He lit a flame for Kamala and I feel that heat right now. Let’s keep this going and fight like hell for Kamala.

(49,931 posts)Similar perhaps, but he is a rare breed in politics.
Just like we'll never seen another FDR or Abraham Lincoln or JFK. Each president was unique in their own way.
I laugh at people who say so-and-so could be our FDR - no there was only one FDR and he was right for his era. We're not going to get another and even if we could, the odds are people wouldn't want him in this day and age.

(232 posts)Such a beautiful expression of respect and caring. Her emphasis on Biden’s positive qualities — his building up of people — contrasts sharply with MAGA celebrations of Trump’s cruelty, vindictiveness, and tearing down. She’s lovely.

(67,671 posts)Joe, He's a great President who right now is still the President.
He's just so human and caring. Knowledgeable and cares about the country and the American people.
Been in Politics since he was 29 years old. Love First lady Jill, a teacher. You can't get any more Middle Class than that.
