Joe Biden is old. Like each of us, he comes from a particular place in history, in his case the LBJ years. And that’s one big reason why his first term has been so full of accomplishment: His age, often cited as the greatest obstacle to his reelection, is actually his superpower.
The first presidential election in which Joe Biden was eligible to vote featured Lyndon Johnson beating Barry Goldwater. History remembers LBJ’s presidency as chaotic because of his tragic adventuring in Vietnam, but in other respects it was remarkable. His Great Society echoed Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal (FDR was Biden’s childhood president). Under Johnson, the federal government took ambitious steps to advance civil rights, to rein in poverty, attack disease, beautify human landscapes and conserve wild ones, and to further science — these were the Apollo space program years. Not every project worked, but lots have lasted: Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps, for instance.
So Biden was socialized in an era when government took on big causes, and you can see it reflected in his first-term commitment to rebuilding infrastructure on a grand scale, boosting a new sustainable energy economy with billions of dollars for solar panels and battery factories, dramatically increasing the number of people with healthcare, and standing up for gun control, voting rights and reproductive rights.

Have to take a shower after just reading the excerpt.
Shudder.
He has to say this thing because he has been brainwashed since he was probably a little person Democrats are good, Republicans are bad, and anybody who loves America must be destroyed.
If the truth ever Was released into his brain and he actually thought about it, he probably would heal over from an aneurysm.
What drugs is this author on? He is delusional.
Why does this read like propaganda from 1950’s Soviet propaganda? Pravda is circling the keyboards around the evil, old creep.
“So Biden was socialized in an era when government took on big causes, and you can see it reflected in his first-term commitment to rebuilding infrastructure on a grand scale, “
Bill turd-head McKibben thinks that everything about your political views depends on the “era” in which you were “socialized”. The stupidity is beyond comprehension. This shows the danger of combining modern spell-checking with Peyote.
It’s just like the Soviet press with the stroked-out Brezhnev in his final years.
California is home to incredible big dreams:

Btw so is the Los Angeles Times:
Lol.
The left is pissing on us and telling us it is raining. They are desperate because they have no real argument defending Biden...he’s either incompetent mentally or a criminal.
Shameless cognitive dissonance....a mans mental weakness is overpowering strength, yeah right. The piece has all the earmarks of AI generated slop. The fact that purported author is a named scholar at his institution would mean all graduates who learned from him are immediately disqualified as scholars.
Good point—an article this stupid does sound like AI—Artificial Insanity.
The writer of the article reminds me of my old lefty Economics professor I had in college who said not to worry about the national debt “because we owe it to ourselves”.
;-)
This from the LA Times? No wonder it’s losing so much revenue.
I thought it must be from The Bee!
“Yuge vomit projectile alert.”
That’s a fact.
This is your brain on drugs.
;-)
Wow this is weapon grade BS, how does someone even write this pap.
Spinning so hard.
The white, racist scribblers at the LA Times are delusional, dancing at Edgar Allen Poe’s Masque of Red Death, believing they are immune. The deep state is about to fall in LA.
