BIDEN doesn’t have an original thought in his muddled mind. PLAGERIZER!

Reagan Speechwriter: Biden Plagiarized Reagan In Harris Announcement Speech

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3874089/posts

Reagan speechwriter Ken Khachigian alerted Reagan alumni, of which I am one, that in listening to Joe Biden’s introduction of running mate Senator Kamala Harris he heard …ahhhhh…something familiar. Specifically, it was this – as seen here:

Said Joe:

“We can define America simply in one word: “Possibilities.” Possibilities. Let me say it again; possibilities. That’s America.”

Ken, one of the crack speechwriters for President Reagan, knew exactly where he had heard this talk of America and possibilities before. It was September 3, 1984, where the President was speaking at a Reagan–Bush campaign rally in Fountain Valley, California. Said Reagan:

“Now, we’ve heard what others have offered to the American people today, in this year. They have said that America is nothing if it isn’t promises. Well, America isn’t about promises; it never has been. America is about promise. It’s about possibility.

Recall that 1987 – a full 33 years ago – was when Joe Biden was running his first race for president. The campaign of Democratic rival Governor Michael Dukakis revealed that Biden had been plagiarizing from British Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock. The Dukakis people put together this devastating side-by-side video comparison of Biden and Kinnock saying the identical words – and the Biden plagiarizing scandal was launched:

I think the Trump campaign should make new ads using the Dukakis ads, with something like “Thirty three years ago, Joe couldn’t write his own speeches. Has anything changed?”

Or something along that line.

Pretty difficult for me to see that Biden comment as stolen from the Reagan comment.
