Biden’s best vice-president pick is obvious (Tammy Duckworth)
NYT ^ | June 28, 2020 | Frank Bruni, New York Times

Posted on 06/28/2020 4:29:19 PM PDT by Fawn

Whatever his wobbles, Joe Biden has, from the start of his presidential campaign, got one thing exactly right: The 2020 election is a battle for the soul of America. That’s not just a pretty slogan. It’s the stomach-knotting truth — and it’s the frame he should use for choosing his running mate. It’s why he should pick Senator Tammy Duckworth of Illinois. She’s a paragon of the values that Donald Trump, for all his practice as a performer, can’t even pantomime. She’s best described by words that are musty relics in his venal and vainglorious circle: “sacrifice,” “honour,” “humility.” More than any of the many extraordinary women on Biden’s list of potential vice-presidential nominees, she’s the anti-Trump, the antidote to the ugliness he revels in and the cynicism he stokes.

Yep - appears it was a Friday

Obama really freaked me out when he got the Nobel peace prize for “future middle east peace” - also his first foreign phone call (back then) was to Mahmoud Abbas promising to deliver a Palestinian state.

Now obviously that effort still continues - even now - it will happen some day.

I may share additional info via FReepmail. Maybe tomorrow or the next day.

And it doesn't help that he basically came out of nowhere, with no real experience to the most powerful office on Earth. And then was hailed with "messianic" imagery by his cult, errr his "supporters".

Things that ought to grab the attention of any Christian who understands Bible Prophecy:

I don’t know about Hillary, but Thursday, Bill O’Reilly said that David Axelrod is running the campaign to keep Biden as a figurehead, but the new Government will be run by Obama!

So, Biden would be part of a puppet regime run by Obama.

Much worse than Kramer run by Frank Costanza.

Nope.

Nothing incredibly disturbing there.

Yeah it was just one thing after another.

And the way he’s given a pass by the media and even some parts of the government.

Truly bizarre.

I started posting this a few days ago. I was looking for a video and ran across the 2014 Global Citizen Festival. Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama calls in, of course. Look @ not only the idiots on the stage, but all of the globalist fools in the audience.



The 2014 Global Citizen Festival - woohoo, a New World Order! Peace and Safety!

https://youtu.be/TV2lBeKn7Vw?t=59

And the Obama hand sign or whatever @1:02. Look @ all of the Globalist fools in the audience doing the salute, as well.

No it does not. The 14th amendment doesn’t even apply since she was born overseas. She is a US CITIZEN AT BIRTH by virtue of the Immigration and Naturalization Act.

She is not an Article II Natural Born Citizen.

Okay, time to lose a bunch of House seats in districts with sizable minority populations, ‘cause that is what will happen if a white woman instead of a “person of color” gets the VP slot.

She's half-Asian.

If selected Duckworth should be forced to resign as a Illinois US Senator

If elected she would be. If selected why should she resign her seat?

the sound of his voice causes a visceral reaction in me unlike anything else I’ve ever experienced.

Me too! That voice and his unctuous appearance and mannerisms make my skin crawl.

Her father was an American working in Thailand. So that makes her natural born doesn’t it?

Hmmm....maybe??

...she’s the anti-Trump, the antidote to the ugliness he revels in and the cynicism he stokes.
The Demagogic Party and its media stooges, Antifa, BLM, and various foreign enemies stoke cynicism and revel in ugliness. IOW, the shill is swilling out the DNC talking points. If Biden survives to the fake convention, gets the nomination, and survives to the election, his choice of running mate won't matter, because he isn't going to win. Even Moochelle would be a better choice than not-worth-a-Duckworth.

Partisan Media Shills update.
