VP Biden reminds me of Iowa.. older,but gets the job done..

We are often called fly over country..but we just get it done, and move on.. and VP Biden is very much like that.. a little bit about Iowa and you will see what I mean (because we sure do take a bashing in DU during the primary/caucus season)

1970 The UI becomes the first state university to officially recognize and continuously fund a gay student organization.


1977 Iowa City passes the state’s first antidiscrimination ordinance that includes sexual preference, protecting gays and lesbians from discrimination in employment, credit transactions, and public accommodations.


2012 UI Health Care opens the state’s first medical clinic that focuses on the LGBTQ community.

The first state to recognize Gay Marriage..


The Most Impressive State for Clean Energy
It’s Iowa. Really!

The point of this convoluted little op.. VP Biden is older.. lets not kid ourselves.. but like Iowa, he gets the job done.. he is just not all talk, when he says it, he will do it if there is anyway of getting it done..

VP Biden is not the newest penny.. but he spends well GO GO GO JOE

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
