      Yes. I was going to vote for Joe Biden.

      After the debate I decided to change my name to ‘None Of The Above’ and run for president myself.

      Only non-witches get due process.

        Biden has reached the stage where the kids need to tell him to give up the car keys. Still, the Presidency is not one person. The Executive Branch is as effective as the people who are chosen to support the office. Every President is helped and hurt by the people chosen to head the various components of government. While Biden has bumbled some choices, I think that Trump's choices will not be as qualified as the last time he held office. They'll be chosen solely for loyalty to him.

        At least we have a Supreme Court that let's public officials accept bribes - so long as it is after the official has provided the service. America's one percent has bought a responsive government.

          Mr. Biden’s replacement will have no trouble beating Mr. Trump.

          If Mr. Trump is replaced, his replacement could win.

                Bullshit. Kamala Harris won.

                        Yeah. I've also seen "Schadenboner."

                        So, there's that.

                            By the way, is Biden speaking even older than he really is? Phrases like “Alley Cat” and malarkey make him sound 20 years older than he really is,

                                Oh, I know, but again, it makes him sound even older. It sounds like an expression his dad or grandfather would have used.

                                    We deserve better, between the constant stream of confusion and the constant stream of lies.

                                          Is it reasonable to extrapolate the decline curve? We have two very good points and we can forecast by their slope. Joe in 2028? Something approaching vegetable status?

                                          Education is extremely important.
