    I sense some passive aggressiveness here.  don't know if you saw my next post that I actually said sorry for being pretentious.



    I think what I'm putting off is sarcasm, not passive aggressive.

    Not reading through the whole thread is anyone else here angry at the democratic party for about as plain white toast a candidate as you can have?

    If anyone tells me that the democratic party is full of progressives I will point a finger at Mr Biden and ask, really?

    So being progressive means that you are either minority and/or young?  I'm glad to learn that Sanders isn't a progressive.  And why would you be 'angry' with the voters?  Seems pretty immature, tbh.

    Well, for me Biden is what I'm generally looking for. My confession - I have never voted Dem in a presidential election. I stopped voting GOP in the late 80's, got fed up, and have voted 3rd party most of my life. This time around I said I'd vote for whomever received the Dem nomination. As a centrist and moderate I'm happy to not only vote Biden, but support and promote him. Plain, white toast perhaps. Compassionate, reliable, respected, and vastly experienced (in Legislative and Executive roles) as well. Just the candidate we need to bring the country back to a level of respect and leadership after the shitshow of the past 4 years. I am Team Biden. I am not disappointed, but rather encouraged that we have a candidate who has broad appeal and does not represent an extreme or fringe faction of a party. Could he be a better speaker? Sure. Could he be more progressive on some issues? Sure. But now is not the time for experiments, cults of personality, or further division. Now is the time to right the sinking ship.

    I feel that VP Joe is more progressive than he's given credit for. He's the one that encouraged President Obama to take action on same-sex marriage. That was pretty darn progressive. There may have been much more but we'll see how he governs, if there's any justice in the world at all. I have to believe there is.

    Nobody said being progressive is minority or young, it just isn't Biden...
    Why am I angry?  Because it will be business as usual with Biden in there...

    You put it in a very good light and I will hope that it goes the way you say.  I'm ok with it if both sides of the aisle can cross over and say hello again.

    Trump has royally fucked up our country in many ways...too many to list here. That's a fact. In order to un-fuck our country (and also the world), he needs to be a one term president. That being said, I decided long ago that I would vote for whoever the Democratic nominee is. And it looks like that is Biden.

    I sincerely hope that everyone gets out and votes. Whether it's a mail in ballot or wearing a fucking hazmat suit to the local polling place. I hope everyone votes.

    Yup. That article was 22 years old. I can't speak for the rest of you, but my views on a lot of things have changed quite a bit from when I was 20.

    I think he is more "put a finger up in the air to see the way the wind blows, and lie if you have to" than he's given credit for.

    That statement is 100% correct.

    Except that he was ahead of the POTUS on that issue, which is what Kat's point was.  This isn't difficult to navigate.

    If you care about the planet, vote for Biden.  Otherwise we'll end up with a 6-3 conservative majority in the Supreme Court and we can kiss anything forward moving for environmental issues, women's rights issues, and LGBTQ rights issues goodbye.

    The supreme court is the most important thing on the ballot.
