It isn't just Biden's willingness to compromise and/or change his position on issues. He has much better political sense than most anyone else out there, from either party. "They" will make his age an issue, and there will be plenty of "flubs" to fuel it, but Joe was on fire during the SOTU and the more voters can see of that, the less his age will dominate. A resounding "Thanks, Joe!"

The ageism of this basically stupid American people (yes I said it out loud) is tiring! As long as he can walk and chew gum at the same time, he is better than the alternatives on either side at this point -- because we still need a calm, steady, EXPERIENCED hand at the rudder of the ship of state for the next 4-6 years. And he has the best political sense as well as the best foreign policy credentials and enough domestic policy creds.

I agree! "Thanks, Joe!"

One advantage of his longevity in gov't is he knows EVERYBODY in Washington and internationally.
I wish I could "Like" multiple times - very well said!
