I flirted with the Dump Old Joe Movement for a hot minute, why?
because Joe is old, white and old.
Would I prefer young, not quite so white, and young?
Probably, but I think Joe’s doing a good job so why punish him
for two things he can’t control: his age and the color of his skin.
I am, however, a card carrying member of the Anybody But Trump Movement, why?
because Trump is old, white, and has been indicted on 91 criminal charges.
I never even glanced at the Kick Kamala to the Curb Movement, why?
Because Kamala is much younger at 58, a female person of color, outspoken champion of women’s rights to control our own bodies, brilliant, fights injustices and…
because people of color will determine the outcome of the 2024 election.

I agree 100% with one exception, I truly want Joe to win again. I think, despite everything stacked against him, he’s doing a really great job as President. This is on time when we needed an old, shrewd, wily, experienced, old school politician to sort things out. He’s unflappable in the face of Republican obstructionism.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful comment.
I applaud Joe, too, and agree 100% with your reasoning on why we needed him. I think history will judge him as one of the most effective presidents – and unflappable nails it. I was too harsh.
