OK- LET ME UNDERSTAND THIS … The trump campaign team wants muted 9/10 debate mics “because they don’t think Trump can be presidential OVER 90 MINUTES OF DEBATE !” Then HOW IN HELL CAN HE BE “PRESIDENTIAL” OVER A 4-year TERM OF OFFICE ???
America will never be “perfect” , because “WE The People” are not perfect - but we must be honest even when it doesn’t sound right . So our mandate and fundamental task is to KEEP MOVING THE STICKS “… in order to form that MORE Perfect Union”-
Talking ACROSS our political barricades no longer suffices ! We must now come OUT from behind ideological fences , from behind our comforting but divisive labels, and join hands in common cause to salvage the principles and promise of democracy and freedom- OR ELSE !
@StephenKing History teaches that CONDITIONS , not individuals , determine leadership & generate content and trajectory of change. Given the rescinding of Roe and the reconsignment of women to reproductive bondage , we couldn’t pre-identify her - BUT WE KNEW SHE WAS ON HER WAY ….
@JonathanRynn CAN’T always choose what comes our way… but we can usually choose how we are going to manage it - hopefully with courage , dignity, grace, even a modicum of humor. All considered ,then , I’m doing better than I deserve- given what I’ve done and what America has done to me.

THANK YOU, LeBRON ! Your Foundation’s shift to a focus on “Women’s Rights” issues could not be more timely or imperative given the existential threat to women’s lives and opportunities posed by the rescinding of Roe . Start : GET OUT THE VOTE MOVEMENT !
@DelanoSquires@ProfBlackistone I’m sorry- I ❤️Tony- & strongly support /vigorously defend the right of ALL to hold religious values/ sentiments applied to their OWN lives - HOF or not- I DON’T support “Lilliputian” egotistical zealots who denigrate others holding DIFFERENT or NO religious beliefs.
@fmdano74 AND THINGS ARE UNLIKELY TO GET BETTER- we are not talking BENJAMIN BUTTON here - the POTUS WILL NOT suddenly slam on the brake and suddenly begin a reversal of his condition in yrs 1,2,3,4 ahead. . And where does that leave the Presidency & the nation.
To be clear: yes, I have concerns re: Biden’s physical / mental capacities to perform optimally as POTUS for next 4 yrs- but given alternative , I’ll donate to, work & vote for him even if he has to deliver his inauguration address from a gurney !
@fmdano74 OK- we can be honest even when we can’t be right! WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT “ONLY THE DEBATE”. We TRAGICALLY are witnessing the unconscionable public meltdown of the POTUS - misstatement by misstatement, flub by flub, blunder by blunder.
Look- I EMPATHIZE ! I’M 81 yrs old too! AND THIS IS DISTRESSING ! PAINFUL! SO PLEASE ! PLEASE !! If not based on judgement, based on MERCY - STOP THE PRESS CONFERENCE !!
Call in the jugglers and clowns ! THIS FIASCO AMOUNTS TO “ELDER ABUSE”.
“Craziness for crazy times”- anything to incite commitment to legitimacy of democracy, republic, freedom- the foundations of ALL struggles “to form that more Perfect Union.”
Point: NO limits to our thoughts -even to poss. of keeping Biden- Harris.
Now to build upon the ridiculous, should Obama ascend from VP to the POTUS, he’ll need to appoint VP replacement. Hummmmm, wonder who’d be able, available, , ready , and willing ….??
A Biden-B.Obama ticket looms ridiculous, not bc Obama is ineligible to run for VP- he isn’t ,and could even ascend to POTUS. It’s ridiculous bc in America ,against a loser with his own normally disqualifying issues, it’s even come to such contemplation.
