VP Biden and the Cancer Moonshot

VP Biden has been working on the Cancer Moonshot.. asking everyone and anyone to support the initiative to finally stamp out cancer..

And reaching out to all sides is what you do.. cancer affects everyone no matter what their political stripe is..

This is one of the reasons I support this candidate.. he moves for the better good of us all..not only political moves..

He promised his son, Beau, that he would do it.

but as a mother having a son with cancer I'm with Biden.I would listen and speak to anyone, anywhere about curing cancer. It falls into a category outside of politics.

so true about being so hard on others. So wonderful you are a survivor. Even though cancer has returned to my son I still have hope he will beat it.

and when your body turns on you and your cells go wild .. and the things you have to endure to try and regain your life... thank GOD Biden would go anywhere and talk to anyone.. he watched his own child die.. I was so blindsided by another op going after the VP for engaging and speaking at an event for a republican is support of cancer research .. I had to say something.. politics are politics.. but this is something all our candidates should be willing to do.. go to bat for cancer research..

He understands it better than many candidates on both sides.

I choose a candidate who will not arbitrarily send our forces to Iran or some other ego war, i.e Reagan, Bush and wannabe dictator dump.
