The Top 5 All Have Experience. That's Not A Coincidence.

Over the years, I have worked at a lot of different jobs, which means I have spent my fair share of time looking for work. I've also hired and trained a number of people. When I hired people, it basically came down to two things: knowledge and experience. If a person had both the knowledge and experience to do the job, plus the actual desire to do that job, that is what really mattered.

The top five Democratic Presidential Candidates all have knowledge and Experience. Bernie Sanders has been a Senator for a good while and has been active in politics for more than 40 years. Pete Buttigieg was a successful mayor in a red state, has military experience, has a great education, and is sharp as a tack. Elizabeth Warren is a successful Senator and college professor. Joe Biden was VP for 8 years and a Senator for 6 terms. Finally, Amy Klobuchar is a Senator who has been very successful in getting Progressive bills passed with Republican cooperation.

They all have knowledge and experience, which is why they are here, and knowledge and experience is the main thing people need to get hired. Knowing who a candidate is and what they have done in the past is critical in deciding who to hire as the next President. Of all of the candidates, the candidate who has more national political experience and knowledge, by far, is Joe Biden. This is one of the reasons that he is my choice.

Yet, Joe Biden is not just about what he's done in the past. Take a look at some of the issues that his website covers:

Joe Biden is looking forward to what can realistically be done to help all Americans. He's not about Pie In The Sky ideas that won't happen for years and years. He's about what can be done a year from now when Joe Biden is in office. This is why I support Joe Biden, and I will be supporting him at least through the Democratic Convention--no matter what!

Go, Joe!

That said, I'll vote Blue No Matter Who unless she's a Russian plant. I'm sure you know who I'm referring to.
