Biden just withdrew. Many questions present themselves. The Dem convention becomes very important for the first time in 50 years. The only thing I know for sure is the Joe Biden has the opportunity to make a truly great, historic speech.
Such a speech could put our present situation in perspective in most dramatic relief.
I would like to see a different candidate, but the intramural war that would ensue would do sufficient damage to assure that the party would not recover this year.
My neurologist and physician friends are saying that Biden either has early Parkinson's disease or he was suffering a transient ischemic attack (TIA) onstage. Surely these symptoms had been appearing long before the debate and surely his aides should have done something about this earlier. What is clear is that he needs to be happily retired and the Chicago convention needs to be the venue to pick new candidates. We love you Joe - but don't do a Ginsburg on us! And one last thing: I do NOT want a man that slow having to react to the threat of a nuclear attack from say, North Korea. Beloved Joe, you gotta go!
Now let’s say it:AGE IS THE ISSUE! I look forward to SNL the next few weeks.
