Thank you, Joe

I want to express my deep gratitude for Joe Biden. I had no doubt he would be a good president. I was pleasantly surprised that he is a great president. I am an independent (but not a centrist). And I have deep respect for the decision he made today. Not because he stepped aside and endorsed his running mate for president. I would have happily voted for Joe. I’ve said before that Joe in a coma would be a better president than Trump on his best day. I will happily vote for Kamala Harris, even though I did not vote for her when she ran for president previously. She is sharp, capable, and classy; this is self-evident.

I am deeply grateful for Joe’s service to our nation. Today, he came to believe that Kamala had a better chance at being the next president than he himself had. The courage to hand the baton to Kamala shows the type of man he is. He is stepping away from the job he’s always wanted, and that happens to be an office that gives one human the most power in the world. The courage and strength that takes is laudable. It’s the definition of selfless patriotism. The Biden family has given so much to this country, and today they’ve given even more.

Thank you, Joe.
