16. I wonder that myself

I will say, though, that I am getting a bit tired of hearing 'now's not the time'.

As of the last week, it has even amplified into a you're not welcome message.

Sorry, hard to be enthusiastic about another old white man, and of whom I have serious questions as to health (I observed him extensively here in Iowa), and has positions that are generally to the right of mine.

But, hey, party unity . . . and where else do you liberals go.

As Biden said, here in Iowa, to a possible constituent, "Hey, don't like it, vote for the other guy (Red Don)". And we saw more than one flash of anger like this from him in Iowa.

Sorry Biden supporters. I'll vote for the guy, but I think the party is making a huge mistake. They are nominating the Biden of 12 years ago, not the Biden that physically exists today.

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