Yeah, the economy is recovering nicely, the stock market is at record highs, troops are coming home from foreign wars.
If Republicans couldn't beat Obama in the depths of recession, they will have no chance against Hillary in a recovering economy.

The subject was trickle-down and wealth inequity. But hey, I don't blame you for trying to change the subject.

The subject was President Biden. I don't blame you for being afraid, the guy is an idiot.
Trickle down and wealth inequality, that's almost entirely a Republican creation.

Democrats have had substantial control the past 6 years and we can clearly see the fruits of their labors. I was hoping for change we can believe in. How about you?

Substantial control? Is that code for "not enough to get any legislation through the Senate"?

I quoted senseamp and his post regarding trickle down economics and responded specifically to that subject. You'd give Biden a run for his money it seems.

Nobody has ever suggested I run for president before, but I will decline due to my present position and lack of money to pursue the office.
But thanks for the vote of confidence.🙂
 
Biden was brought on board for pretty much one reason - he's on speaking terms with everyone, no matter what, and had the reputation for being one of the capitol's preeminent "insiders." Obama wanted his connections and established personal relationships working for his admin in what he correctly saw as an upcoming period of daunting partisan strife.

Biden's presidential mettle and oratory skills? Not so much.

Soros doesn't have to spend as much because he already has the mainstream media on his side. No need to pay them to slam the opposition and soft-ball those they support because they do it willingly.

Lol! So by mainstream media I'm guessing your are referring to that left wing bullshit mountain resident, Fox News who has more than double the viewership of cnn and msnbc, combined?

Do you have any more tired talking pouts you want to throw out there?

That's a theory that I don't subscribe to. Obama wanted someone dumber than himself so he wouldn't look so bad and the field was pretty small. Hank Johnson and Sheila Jackson-Lee turned down the job so to Biden it went.

Obama should have selected you, considering how terrible you are at reading comprehension and telling the truth.

What ever it was, changing presidents and changing the president's political party didn't change the trend...

Here's a hint:; it has to do with tax rates. You'll note that the rates (except slightly under Clinton) never changed.


Now what does that tell you?
 
I wouldn't be surprised if Biden put his hat in the ring, but he won't make it past the early primaries.

EDIT: By comparison, what was accomplished under GWB with Republican Congress 01-06? Patriot Act and tax cuts? Iraq?

Since 2008, we expanded the patriot act, made most of the tax cuts permanent, and Obama is asking for Iraq War part 3.

Reagan. Trickle-down economics. Make the top much wealthier and then the poor will be wealthier, um, somehow, because he said so.

We did the make the wealthy wealthier part. We are just waiting for the trickle down part. It'll come any day now.

Any day.

Trickle down actually works as intended. It has choked the money off to a trickle for everyone but those in the upper income levels. What part of "trickle" are people having a problem understanding? Supplying millions with a mere trickle? Get real. Trickle down is working exactly as intended.

Enjoy your few drops from the trickle.
