8. We Will See If You Stick To It, Sir

Apr 2020

My mind is open to the possibility you will, and that is certainly the outcome I would prefer.

The questions posed point to what would seem to me clear signs of unity, that anyone joining in a coalition behind Mr. Biden in the efforts of the Democratic Party to turf out the cheap thug Trump, and the gravedigger of the Senate, McConnell, should have no difficulty answering with yes, yes, and yes, respectively.

Like respect, comradeship is earned, and ought not be granted lightly, or on mere profession of desire. Actions must follow, behavior may need to alter.

"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

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