3. We need to finally put an end to the Reagan Revolution once and for all

40 long years we've been living with Ronnie's trickle-down supply-side voodoo economics bullshit. Clinton & Obama only managed to slow it down a little as best they could given the Republican Congresses they had for most of their terms. But when a Gopper got back in after each one left they promptly cranked it right back up again. THAT is what has led to much of our skyrocketing deficits. Tax cuts on steroids that were supposed to "pay for themselves" but never ever even came close.

We don't need to replace one ill-advised "revolution" with yet another. America goes fastest and advances the farthest when we're zooming down the middle of the road...preferably to the left of the centerline and sometimes a little to the right of it if need be. But constantly careening back and forth banging off of one guard rail and then off the other ain't no way to run a country.

Joe's a straight-shooter and I'm betting he also knows how to steer a car straight too. Hoping enough Americans are smart enough to toss him the keys.

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