Biden campaign really *is* calling

This afternoon, I received a call from a volunteer with Biden's campaign, and all he wanted to know is how we were doing, if we needed any help or support, and that they were there if we needed them. We talked for several minutes - almost none of it about campaign stuff (other than how crappy iq45 is doing). He did mention, more or less in passing about the town hall, and at no time was there even a hint of fundraising or requests for money or anything else! Simply to check up on supporters. Color me impressed

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

You can tell the kind of leader someone is by the kind of people who work on their behalf.

Trump's rot shows throughout.

The guy who called was a very nice young man, been holed up for almost 4 weeks, just spending his time calling supporters I guess. Very cool. And no doubt in my mind, if we had actual problems (which we fortunately do not), he would be on it. They clearly had hot lines and other things set up for access in their homes
