    The interesting thing here in this deal is that Biden was checked out completely before he was offered the VP spot for Obama. Had there been even one hint of finger-fucking in his background or personnel files … out to the dust bin!

    Things got worse for whom?
    Tara Reade seems to lack credibility to me.

    Asmo has a poor understanding of American politics.

    Yes, its better to work on a long term improvement than to settle for Biden, who will likely lose to Trump anyway.
    Trump is not good for the world or the majority of US citizens. But your country will most likely never improve constructively again as long as you remain stuck in voting against and limiting damage.
    No party deserves a monopoly on a whole political wing. It's amazing it kinda worked for the time it did. But societal and technological changes has made that a thing of the past.

    Especially since the party not in the White House always insists it's the most important election of our lifetime and we need to get the present party out. It's a con job and serves only to benefit the two party system.

    Meanwhile Congress continues to be totally dysfunctional. In large part due to the two party system. I'm not certain it would be better with a more diverse party showing but I wouldn't mind finding out.

    I understand and am not at odds with that (although you know i think the solution lies else where ;) But that was not the point in why i asked you). Just because you vote for a party doesn't mean you have to identify with it.
    I can call myself a democrat too: because I support democracy (so i can even call myself a liberal democrat, like you). But I wouldn't call myself or identify as a member of the democrat party if i was american.

    Apparently you haven't seen the latest polls which have Biden steamrolling trump

    In the state of Texas, Biden is tied with Trump

    I still recognize myself as a democrat and listen to what the party ultimately has to say; even when it's full of shit and riddled with obvious ties to corporate America. I guess I just figure "maybe I'm wrong" about the things we don't agree about.

    So your position is that Trump is smarter, lies less, is more politically in touch with the world, has more integrity and honor, knows the law better, is more experienced, more empathetic, attacks his political rivals war heroes and the media less, more transparent (as in tax returns for example), more humble, ....in short better than Hillary Clinton?
    I assume you don't like that child sex ring she was running in the basement of that pizza parlor and had 50 or so people murdered over?

    I didn’t say any of those things you mentioned - but she is just as evil and certainly not fit to be the commander-in-chief, especially since she hates the military. I don’t think the political climate would really be any different having either one of them.

    You basically called him stupid for seeing it differently than you and Okie. Maybe putting a denigrating touch in your arguments have become so common you don't notice it yourself anymore. One problem in polarized american politics anyway.

    Even if Biden would win my point still stands.

    'waived the right'. 'End of discussion. Now shut up'. This is wishful thinking. Not absolute truth.
