This ad from Biden and Gabby Giffords makes me want to run through a brick wall to elect Joe in Nov.

I make no secret of my initial preference for Warren and Harris, but this ad shows Biden at his best and why I switched over to him without hesitation.

Stay safe everyone!!

He claims he can work with Republicans to get things done. But even with massive public support he didn’t on this issue that meant a lot to him.

Plus, his Assault Weapons Ban didn’t save lives as he claimed. There is no evidence that it did.

1536, enacted November 30, 1993), often referred to as the Brady Act or the Brady Bill, is an Act of the United States Congress that mandated federal background checks on firearm purchasers in the United States, and imposed a five-day waiting period on purchases, until the NCIC system was implemented in 1998.

when it comes to Biden trying to explain what happened leading up to his AUMF vote.

When Bernie tries to explain HIS uncomfortable votes then those are "reasons".

Cmon, Cha...get with the Sanders logic.
