    I agree too. Obama had charisma and was a great speaker, but policy wise Biden is much better.

    If Obama was firmer many current problems would not exist today. But it is easier to say now.

      And as we’re seeing now with Biden’s poll numbers, unfortunately, that’s all that matters. Doesn’t matter how many good things you do to help people, all that matters is whether you have charisma and a good media relations team.

      People are so stupid. Maybe democracy was a mistake.

        Maybe democracy was a mistake.

        It probably works fine if the majority of your population doesn’t have either CTE from your sports programs, lead poisoning, or something above an 8th grade education.
