It's time to recognize that Joe Biden has passed his "Michael J. Fox in a bad Teen Wolf"movie moment

As the story goes, a young Michael J. Fox once starred in a movie about a Teen Wolf. Not even the Wolf costume was good enough to push that movie into the "B" Movie category. But that movie was Michael J. Fox's defining star moment. People bought tickets because they wanted to see Michael J. Fox, even in a bad wolf costume. The movie made money.

That's all I want to say. Joe Biden could show up at the debates in a bad wolf costume and I would still vote for him. I understand that the production crew still has to show up, someone still has to hold the camera to record the scenes and someone else still has to produce this movie. But as far as my vote counts, that shit is in the can.

He is by no means perfect, but it's only in modern times that we've aimed for that. He'll do a good job, despite the dumb ways he goes off in conversation.

One term!

Twitler’s misdeeds hit the press the Repubs yelled,”He’s not perfect, just like you’re not perfect.” Biden trips over his own feet and that’s proof he’s not presidential? WTAF?!??

1. The public policies that he will pursue as prez.
2. Reasons for rejecting Trump & Co.

Joe should refuse to engage in other topics.

Trumpsters will not graciously accept less than a 99% to 1% victory by Joe. We need all the votes we can get to stamp them out.

He just needs to stay in contact with community leaders that represent special demographics, to send the message that their issues are being addressed and will not be ignored.
