Far from my first choice, Joe now must be my Great American Hero.

It’s obvious that he will be our nominee.
He is not nearly as liberal as me.
I would have preferred someone younger and a better public speaker.

But, too bad. He will be my guy now.
I vow to accentuate his positives like his empathy, compassion, and warmth.
He simply must beat Trump.
There can be no voting for third party candidates.
There can be no staying home.
Biden MUST beat Trump.
The world will be watching and hoping and praying along with us.

Don’t let us down Joe.
Our future is in your hands.
You must become our Greatest American 🦸‍♂️ Hero!

Biden will put a lot of thought into his VP. I'm hoping for a strong progressive Dem woman as the VP candidate. They will be a formidable ticket with a look to the future too. Setting up a Dem House & Senate is paramount to getting anything done. It can't just be a small majority either.

But this is an all hands on deck emergency, we at all costs need to evict the dangerous Dangerous Dumbbell before it’s too late. We need to thrash him, if it is remotely close he may not leave willingly.
