Joe Biden has his eye on the White House and is sharpening his political weapons with hopes he can carve Donald Trump out of the political picture once and for all.
Biden served as President Obama’s Vice President during the latest chapter of his political story and now intends to run for the highest seat in the land by announcing that he is running for President himself.
I believe history will look back on four years of this president and all he embraces as an aberrant moment in time.But if we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation — who we are — and I cannot stand by and watch that happen.
All of this now means he will be forced to compete against the likes of the popular Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Bernie Sanders as well the latest lineup of Republican stars also hoping to replace Trump.
Also standing in his way? His treatment of Ms. Anita Hill.
She had this to say about his announcement…
I cannot be satisfied by simply saying I’m sorry for what happened to you. I will be satisfied when I know there is real change and real accountability and real purpose.
She added…
The focus on apology to me is one thing.But he needs to give an apology to the other women and to the American public because we know now how deeply disappointed Americans around the country were about what they saw. And not just women. There are women and men now who have just really lost confidence in our government to respond to the problem of gender violence.
