Albright: Joe Biden will restore America's stature in the world Opinion Go Joe...😎

American foreign policy under President Trump has been defined by a relentless effort to dismantle the global system of problem solving that the United States helped create after World War II. Since the day he took office, Trump has abandoned vital diplomatic agreements, insulted allies and hurt our ability to work with other nations to address common threats.
At home, Trump has put our governing institutions at risk by undermining Congress, the courts and his own federal agencies. He has disregarded science and twisted facts to suit his political agenda, while demonstrating an open disdain for democrat values


I have been privileged to know Joe for many years. I know his record of accomplishment on domestic issues such as healthcare, but I am even more familiar with his views on international affairs. When I served as America’s ambassador to the United Nations and secretary of State, he was one of the Senate’s leading voices on foreign policy, and his instincts on diplomacy often mirrored and reinforced my own

I am confident Americans will support him because we want a leader who will make us proud again. We want an America that is respected around the world, not simply for what we possess, but also for what we believe.
We want an America whose word is trusted; whose ideals lift people up; whose actions inspire all who love liberty; and whose president brings people together rather than driving them apart.
This November, we can become one country again, but only if we participate in our democratic process. My hope is that independents, members of both parties and a multitude of first-time voters will do just that. We all have a part to play, and I pledge to do mine by vigorously supporting the candidacy of Joe Biden.

Joe Biden announces backing from Emilia Sykes, more than half of Cleveland City Council..Yea Joe...😎

CLEVELAND, Ohio – Former Vice President Joe Biden added to his expansive list of endorsements from elected officials in Ohio on Wednesday as Ohio House Minority Leader Emilia Sykes of Akron backed the Democratic presidential hopeful.
Biden has consolidated much of the institutional support in the state in the lead-up to the March 17 primary election, including three of Ohio’s four U.S. House members and a slew of statehouse members. Joining Sykes on Wednesday were five members of her caucus as well as 10 of Cleveland’s 17 city council members


We have a real opportunity to win and break the GOP supermajority in the Ohio House with Vice President Biden at the top of our ticket, and I urge my fellow Ohioans to vote for Joe Biden on March 17th and help our state have a real, decent, and experienced partner in the White House,” Sykes said in a statement

Bernie Sanders Admits That He Is Losing, But Will Stay In The Race For Now...😲

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) admitted that he was losing the Democratic primary, but committed to staying the race through Sunday’s debate


If Sen. Sanders wants to stick in the race through the debate, that is a good idea, because voters deserve a chance to see former vice president Biden in a one on one debate setting, but if stays in the race, Sanders is facing a series of blowout losses in places like Georgia, Florida, and potentially, Illinois.
At some point in the near future, Sanders is going to damage the movement that he is trying to build if he keeps losing states by a resounding margin

Sen. Sanders knows that he is losing, and his campaign will likely end soon

Bernie Sanders Goes Silent After Another Night Of Defeats...😥

For the first time in the 2020 Democratic primary, Sen. Bernie Sanders did not address his supporters on Election NightIn reality, there isn’t much that Sen. Sanders can say. By convincingly winning Michigan,

Joe Biden laid waste to Sanders’s argument that he can bring out a coalition of young people and blue-collar workers that can win Midwestern states like Michigan



The tweets from Sanders’s campaign aides are a signal that the Senator from Vermont won’t be dropping out of the race this week, but in this case, the silence of the Sanders campaign speaks volumes. The campaign issued no official statement, and the candidate made no remarks.

In a week, it will likely be impossible for Sanders to catch Biden, and the election night silence is a sign that the end is near for the presidential campaign of Bernie Sanders

Bernie you need to drop out...Its over.....time to beat the con Trump

Yea ..Michigan our home state....we did it...

Joe Biden Spent Years Embracing Michigan. He Hopes Voters Return The Favor..Snyder voting Sander ? 😯

As vice president, Joe Biden visited Detroit nearly a dozen times, more than President Obama. He was in Detroit again on Monday, this time campaigning for the White House before Michigan's Tuesday primary.
In Detroit, Biden often talks about his affinity for the city. He tells audiences how he's a car guy, that his father sold cars for a living, that he connects with the city's working class character


Snyder is now executive director of a community organization called Detroit Action. The group has endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders. Snyder said Warren was his first choice, but now he plans to vote for SandersTogether with Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, he flipped

Michigan's governor's mansion blue in 2018 by 10 points. On Friday, the 6' 8" lieutenant governor arrived in Detroit's Arden Park neighborhood carrying treats to celebrate the opening of a Biden field office here.
"The path to turning Michigan blue starts in neighborhoods like this one," he told a cheering audience of staff and volunteers

Joe Biden Wins Endorsement Of Machinists Union After Rare Rank-And-File Vote 😎

The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers is giving former Vice President Joe Biden the union’s presidential endorsement after holding a national vote by the union’s members


The machinists union endorsement is unique in that it was done through a rank-and-file vote. At most large international unions, executive board members or other officials ultimately make the decision on which presidential candidate to back, typically after internal surveys and feedback from their members and local leaders

Bernie Sanders Claims African-Americans Voting Against Him Is A Corporate Establishment Conspiracy 😯

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) refuses to acknowledge that African-Americans are rejecting him and instead blames a corporate establishment conspiracy


There is no establishment conspiracy against Sanders because Bernie Sanders co-wrote the Democratic primary rules. Sen. Sanders is complaining about African-American voters rejecting him, and instead of doing a better job with these voters, he is acting like Donald Trump by claiming that the establishment is out to get him

If the campaign of Sen. Sanders doesn’t turn it around on Tuesday, one of the big reasons why will be the candidate’s embrace of conspiracies, and refusal to see his own campaign’s weaknesses

Give me break. you say its a conspiracy or rigged against you when your losing not only AA..also a lot of the Jewish vote..

Richard Cordray, former CFPB head and Warren ally, endorses Joe Biden...Go Joe 😎🎨


Richard Cordray, the former head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and a close ally to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), threw his support to Joe Biden on Saturday, saying he thinks the former vice president is the best choice to beat President Trump and bring the country together

Cordray also said he thinks Biden is “uniquely positioned” to be the leader “who can help unify this country again at a time when it’s deeply divided.”
Though Cordray ran for governor in Ohio, he is hardly a household name. But his nod may send a signal about where Warren’s circle — and perhaps where Warren — will land when deciding whether to back Biden or his liberal rival Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)



In an interview, Cordray cautioned against reading too much into his endorsement. He said that he did not speak with Warren about his plan to endorse Biden, and he made clear that he is not trying to speak for her or her supporters

Biden coming to Grand Rapids, Detroit on Monday.....Omg..Go Joe😎


Former Vice President Joe Biden will hold campaign rallies in Grand Rapids and Detroit on Monday, the day before the Democratic presidential primary election.

The Biden campaign issued a schedule listing a “campaign stop” in Grand Rapids and a “get out the vote event” in Detroit, but said details on times and places will follow.




Biden also will be in Grosse Pointe Farms for a campaign fundraiser.

Southfield attorney Barry Goodman told MLive that he is hosting a fundraiser for Biden on Monday with former Michigan Gov. Jim Blanchard and Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan. Goodman, a Biden donor and member of the Democratic National Committee, said “there’s been a lot of people energized by the large potential” that Biden will earn the Democratic presidential nomination.




We live in suburb of ....of GR ….cant wait.....

'Michigan or bust' for Sanders - and it's going to be bust.....😎💙

All the digital ink spilled about Super Tuesday is fawning over former Vice President Joe Biden and his miraculous comeback. But the fact is that Biden’s winning comes down to two things. First, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is a weak candidate whose success was built on quirks in the Democratic nominating process, not on real popularity. Second, simply existing while all others fail is a winning strategy for Biden.

Let’s start by establishing that the Democratic race is over. Biden will be the nominee, and he will win on the first ballot. The only chance Sanders has is if he can win the Midwest states he won in 2016 (plus the ones he didn’t) — which makes Michigan a must-win state for him. But it doesn’t look at all favorable for him in the Wolverine State — or anywhere else in the Midwest. (Raise your hand if you thought Biden would steamroll through the Democratic field — just a hand or two, maybe, and let’s forget February.)Sanders has one last shot: He must win Michigan — and continue to win in the Midwest. But Michigan and the Midwest are very much a long shot for him, and the polling dynamic over the past two months is ominous


It is true that Sanders won Michigan in 2016, and he also won Wisconsin, Indiana and had a very close loss in Illinois. But the fact is that Sanders has yet to hold on to all his voters from 2016 and is generally falling by double-digits. Sanders can’t win leaking away votes, and there is no sign of that stopping.
Sanders’ frontrunner status was always built on a foundation of sand. And by just hanging around while everyone else evaporates turns out to be a pretty good strategy for Biden

Go Joe ...you can win my state of Mich..,
