Joe Biden is a progressive.

[boston bean]

God damnit!

I am so tired of the accusation that he is a loathesome moderate.

He IS A PROGRESSIVE!

[Turin_C3PO]

1. Yes

and so were Obama and Hillary Clinton. I’d call Bill Clinton closer to a moderate than the other three.

[mcar]

2. He is a solid liberal

I know longer trust the "progressive" moniker. It seems too much "my way or the highway."

3. Always consider the source

For someone who is way over on the left, he is a moderate

[Hoyt]

4. Agree. And he'll bring infinitely more progress than another term for trump.

5. Good try! Joe is who he is politically. Something wrong with Joe bein a moderate all these decades?

Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

6. No

It’s helped him whip Bernie’s ass across the country.

SCOREBOARD

9. He isn't and hasn't been a "moderate"

all these decades.

[PatSeg]

7. Yes, he is

and always has been. All of a sudden, anyone who doesn't agree with Bernie is a "moderate" or a "centrist". The people haven't changed, but the tags have and they are usually incorrect.

8. He's not a fantasist. He understands how government works. His policies are both progressive and

pragmatic. He is flexible and listens. He definitely looks to the future of this country and the world. Let us not forget the world. It isn’t very progressive to ignore the need for a president with credibility in the world beyond our shores.

It will take global initiative and cooperation to deal with this pandemic and all the challenges of the
21st century. Joe’s got the numbers and can get the ball rolling.

12. I don't think a lot of Democrats have actually read his proposals/vision

Those especially on the left side of the party.

Here is part of one of the topics.

Vice President Biden knows there is no greater challenge facing our country and our world. Today, he is outlining a bold plan – a Clean Energy Revolution – to address this grave threat and lead the world in addressing the climate emergency.

Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face. It powerfully captures two basic truths, which are at the core of his plan: (1) the United States urgently needs to embrace greater ambition on an epic scale to meet the scope of this challenge, and (2) our environment and our economy are completely and totally connected.
