I don't have any idea about his general health, but to me it's obvious he's declining mentally. That's not a stab at Joe at all, it's life. I don't think it's going to harm his campaign unless he actually falls apart on camera.
Joe is the comfortable vote. All the republicans that are sick of having a rude asshole as president can vote for middle of the road Joe. All the democrats that thought Liz and Bernie were to far left can vote for Joe. Pretty much everyone on earth knows that Joe will bring some dignity back to the White House. All of that bodes well for his election, but I also think a lot of people doubt he'll make four years, but don't really care as long as he has a decent VP.

Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

More than dignity. It's also about honesty, good will, sincerity, integrity & common decency.

Like I said, these are convenient stories people tell themselves. The Bernie Bros did the same thing. He’s a guy who has been gaffe prone his whole life and out of desperation people are trying to pretend this is something new.



I guess we will see, I suspect he gets through it just fine. I mean if Reagan could make it through a whole term where his brain was almost literally applesauce I’m sure Biden can do just fine.

I think most people voting for Biden are doing so to remove Trump. I agree that this is one of Biden’s strengths though, since so much of the country hates Trump all Biden needs to be is the blandly acceptable alternative. So far he’s doing that which is why he’s demolishing Trump right now.

Biden is more than that-

Trump is going to say all kinds of crap about the mail in ballots. I'm not a huge fan of mail in ballots either, but not enough to complain about them. I don't buy into the conspiracy theories that they are tampered with for either side such as mailing out pre-sealed return envelopes...

Meh.

LOL, apparently the RNC was triggered by Biden saying all “people” are created equal vs. “men”. With a woman making the argument. Can’t make this shit up.

So I wonder if that twat would be willing to interpret it as she seems to indicate, and return to the role of a subservient woman, without the right to vote, hold office, have credit, sign contracts, or even have her fucking job. Stay home an breed, the true role of women based on her rant.

Really don’t understand her point other than “Men” being replaced with “People”
Does she have another point I’m missing?
I usually speak deplorable pretty fluently. I need a deplorable to explain this please.

No point, just flipping back to being literal constitutionalists, so as to pretend Democrats want to destroy 'Murica, you know....after 'Muricans voted to burn it down they're gravely concerned about this falsified turn of events.

Im thinking it’s a targeted at the base of the base of the base. Gotta have 100% participation of those dumb-dumbs.
Similar how D people will target groups heavily that traditionally don’t vote.
**Shit I sound like a classic battle star galatica kind of guy

Fox news knows it's viewers are likely not to think that much about what they're being told. It's just throw it at the wall and see what sticks, next they'll be telling us what the spirit of the 2A is instead of being literal about it.

I fear there is a good chance we will hear the President complain about millions! 10s of millions of mail in ballots being opened, modified and resealed with tape.
I don’t want to see you be one of those guys

Kind of true I’m not really sure what the President & Rudy are bitching about.

Does everybody understand the issue and the reasoning for allowing people in jail to vote?

It seems like there are those that do understand the issue while others see it as partisan way to get votes.

I myself am torn on the issue. While I agree that anyone who completes their sentence should have their rights restored, I don't believe criminals should be allowed to exercise their right. However, the fact that our legal system is not fair and balanced and in some cases it has targeted certain types of people, leads me to believe that in order to ensure peoples voices aren't suppressed, even criminals should be allowed to vote. Again, however, there can be reconciliation between the two positions and that is to allow non violent criminals the ability to vote. So killers, rapist, domestic abusers, won't be allowed to vote but others will be.

People in jail have rights. If you don't think so, you are definitely part of the problem. One of those rights should surely be the right to vote. Voting is an act of civic responsibility and if there's one thing you want to instill in an incarcerated individual it's their sense of civic responsibility. Given the fact that the proportion of incarcerated people is always going to be a fraction of the populace, in tandem with the fact that the proportion of those that care to and actually do vote is going to be a fraction of that, the net affect on elections is going to be somewhat minimalized. There should be no fear of the consequences of letting them vote. We want people to be engaged. If you shut out those people you're just making things worse.

Sometimes you blather on and fill threads with your posts, but this one I can endorse 😛
Of all the things I would want to encourage in our huge incarcerated population, civic responsibility is right up there.
