To be or not

 Covid, Ukraine, Inflation, Immigration, Roe v Wade -- If Joe had his choice he likely would have picked some other time to be President.

One choice he is facing now is whether to continue onto a second term.  In spite of the likelihood the same problems and more will be with us a couple years down the road, there is no shortage of candidates to step into Joe's shoes.

Bernie has already said he was interested in the job if Joe jumps ship.

Warren is keeping herself in the news with spirited statements on the the big issues going into the mid-terms.

Believe it or Not, Hillary is still around.  She did a PBS interview recently, supposedly to promote a women's leadership group, but her comments on foreign policy issues sounded like campaigning.

Was it fourteen others on the stage with Joe during the run-up to the election?  We'll likely hear more from most of them, and probably some others as well.

I have admired Elizabeth Warren for over a decade, even though (or maybe specifically because) she makes Republicans orgasm in paroxysms of hatred and loathing. When the housing market collapsed in 2006-2009, she was one of the only politicians to speak up for the common homeowner and warn us that we were bailing out the large banks. In effect, we rewarded them for issuing millions of subprime loans to unqualified applicants and selling bundles of loans to other banks. As usual, the little guy got hurt, although I'll be the first to say many home-flippers were greedy and though they could make a killing in real estate. There was a lot of fault in that sordid episode, but Elizabeth spoke for common people.

Yes, I have been a fan too. She has a real talent for explaining economic issues and is a great debater.
