    I've listened to Walz. I know he is a masculine and common sense sort of pick for the left. I didn't so much like the language he used when he called Trump a bastard. He wants to position himself that way, it will align the opposition.

    Education is extremely important.

      @LuFins-Dad said in It's Walz:

      Think about the moment in the VP Debate when Vance brings up the fact that Walz retired to avoid the combat that Vance enlisted for.

      Walz reenlisted 7 days after 9/11, after serving his 20. That’s not what you would do if you were afraid of service during wartime like Trump.

      And another loss for Trump to Biden. Trump only got 4 student deferments and on 1-Y classification. Biden got FIVE student deferments and a 1-Y deferment.

      WINNER!

        I listened to his interview in which calls Trump that. Didn’t care much for it all either. He does not use the epithet with the same erudition and panache as Sean Bean:

            You know, the wife has multiple kinfolk who served in Vietnam. Including one with a bronze or silver star (TBH, I've forgotten which).

            I don't think I've ever heard any of them knock anybody for staying out of Nam, by any legal means possible.

            The Vietnam service argument might work with some of the below 40 crowd, who simply don't know any better, but I thinks it's a non-issue.

                          I'll tell you what I'm disappointed about.

                          It's been a whole freaking day and still no one here has made this joke.

                              Walz is only a few months older than Harris, but he looks 15-20 years older.

                              Only non-witches get due process.

                                      It's possible, just possible, that he carried a weapon in those wars (though I doubt it for the last one in your list).
