Biden vowed his administration would cure cancer if he defeats incumbent President Donald Trump in 2020

Joe Biden is on a mission to help cure cancer.

While speaking to supports in Ottumwa, Iowa on Tuesday, the former vice president vowed that his administration would work to cure cancer if he defeats President Donald Trump in the upcoming 2020 election.

“I’ve worked so hard in my career, that I promise you, if I’m elected president you’re gonna see single most important thing that changes America, we’re gonna cure cancer,” Biden told the crowd in video obtained by the Washington Examiner.

While working in the Obama administration, Biden was responsible for the “Cancer Moonshot” initiative, which “accelerate(s) cancer research aims to make more therapies available to more patients, while also improving our ability to prevent cancer and detect it at an early stage,” according to the organization’s website.

Biden announced the “Cancer Moonshot” initiative during former President Obama’s final State of the Union address back in 2016.

Why didn’t he cure his own son?

Sounds like Joey Joe Joe is running for president of his elementary school class.

Well, that ends Trump’s run. Wrap it up now. It was fun while it lasted. 2020 is going to be the pro-cancer party candidate vs. the anti-cancer party candidate. We’re done. It’s over. All Biden has to do is start talking about giving out free ice cream to everyone and there will never be another Republican elected anywhere.

Yeah—And John Edwards was going to make Christopher Reeve walk again.

Turn out the lights
The party’s over
They say that all
Good things must end

It would be more beneficial if he cured diabetes. Diabetes, in many cases, has been the cause of cancer, heart disease, stroke and many more terrible diseases.

I think the powers that be really want Slow Joe to win.

They picked him like they picked Obama and then HilLIARy.

He can be counted on to stop all the investigations into democrats.

I maintain that Biden is a cancer on our society.

I guess it’s possible for him to cure that cancer, but it would be counter intuitive for him.

Even today our ignorance of cancer is a humbling reality.

The bottom line after billions of dollars spent- the best minds in the world trying to solve it- well over 50 years of serious effort is:
WE don't know what causes it,
We don't know how to prevent it,
we don't know how to cure it.

The best we do is elaborate treatments. -Tom

You can’t promise technological breakthroughs. This is worse than promising “free stuff”, it’s promising something with no basis for being able to deliver it.

Talk about empty promises.

Obama thought he was King Canute and I guess Biden inherited the mantel.

This POS also said that the country doesn’t need 500 billionaires and the solution is is cut Social Security and Medicare. Communists not content with killing babies, now they want to kill old people.

Of course, if you kill the old people, then Social Security goes back to its original intent - a confiscatory tax with little or no payout.

More like Lenin and Stalin.

One way to cure cancer is to execute everyone who has cancer.

Remember Gropey Joe is a lawyer.

".... if I’m elected president you’re gonna see single most important thing that changes America, we’re gonna cure cancer...."

Oh he is, is he? Is this like JFK and "We're going to land a man on the moon?

Has anyone ask Slow Joe why he didn't cure cancer when he was in politics for the last 45 years?

Joe's going to have a hard time getting elected with slurring his speeches and getting caught in flip-flops all of the time.

Joe is like a comfortable pair of old, threadbare slippers you like to wear around the house. But when it's time to go up to the big game, you buy a new pair of shoes.

What does Biden care ???

These cancer sufferers will be dead in short order anyway....it’s not like they’ll live to see him welch on the deal.
