In ordinary times I doubt that I'd even be wasting my time talking about this because it would be too ludicrous to imagine. But sadly, as we all know, this age of Barry "Almighty" is anything but ordinary times. What I'm talking about here is the fact that word now comes to us that 'Slow Joe' Biden is actually busy laying the groundwork for a 2016 presidential campaign, with confident supporters going so far as to assure him that he would defeat Hitlery Clinton in a Democrat primary.
According to the Wall Street Journal, 'Slow Joe's' political allies, who must be folks on some really good shit, are already making campaign plans and 'Slow Joe's' official itinerary now has him traveling to some of the early-primary states. "There's definitely a path forward for him" even if Clinton decides to run, said Larry Rasky, an aide on Biden's presidential campaigns in 1988 and 2008. Wouldn't it be nice if that path was to lead him directly over a very high cliff. Just wishful thinking.
Anyway, "Slow Joe's' camp is said to be exploring the formation of a political action committee which would then allow 'Slow Joe' to lavish key Democrat candidates with donations in an effort to gain some early support. 'Slow Joe' is also planning to attend Democrat political events in Iowa and New Hampshire. Despite the assurances of Biden's inner circle that he could clinch the nomination, polling in New Hampshire shows Hitlery leading the pack with more than 50 percent support.
And I guess it was during some interview earlier this year where he sat down with GQ magazine, that 'Slow Joe' made it known that, yes, he is seriously considering another presidential run. "I can die a happy man never having been president of the United States, but it doesn't mean I won't run," Biden said. Man is that a nightmare scenario, or what. I can't even bring myself to imagine a president Biden. I'm sure nothing would make him happier, but that's far from what this country needs.
Officially, those close to 'Slow Joe' are downplaying the election, and say he is focused on his current job. "Any talk of other future plans is complete speculation," an aide said. 'Slow Joe' turns 74 two months before Inauguration Day, and, if elected, would be the first president older than 70 to take office. He would be more than four years older than Ronald Reagan was when he took his first oath of office. And let's face it, after having watched this guy in action, is he presidential material?
But as I previously mentioned, these are far from being ordinary times, by any stretch of the imagination. And a contest between 'Slow Joe' and Hitlery would be nothing more than a contest to see who it is that could give the most away, both here at home and internationally. And with a populace that, the near majority of which, has now become firmly addicted to all manner of government goodie, the chances that a 'Slow Joe' presidency could actually become a reality, couldn't be better.
There's little doubt that those who are interested in nothing more than in seeing how much they can get for nothing, will vote for the Democrat candidate no matter who it is. And as we found ourselves after "BJ" Clinton, we, as a country, are now once again in desperate need of some adult supervision. And 'Slow Joe' is anything but an adult. He's the equivalent of your senile old grand-dad that you visit on the weekends. And as such, the last place we need to find him is in the Oval Office.
It would seem that with the electing of Barry, not once but twice, the priorities of the American people have shifted. Because, instead of choosing to elect a leader whose main goal is to make sure that we do all that we can to maintain a stable and prosperous country that we can then handover to those who come after us, we seem to be perfectly content to elect those who are only too happy to bury future generations under a mountain of debt so that we can then sit back and do nothing.
Such is the scenario that would seem to make a 'Slow Joe' presidency all the more likely. We've become nothing more than a nation of parasites, with fewer of us everyday even seeing the slightest thing wrong with that. We've apparently decided that it has become perfectly acceptable to enjoy the fruit of our child's labor while that child is still in diapers. Kinda gives a whole new meaning to being selfish. Is this really where we are a nation? If so, am I the only one who sees that as being more than just a little sad?
