Biden coming to Grand Rapids, Detroit on Monday.....Omg..Go Joe😎


Former Vice President Joe Biden will hold campaign rallies in Grand Rapids and Detroit on Monday, the day before the Democratic presidential primary election.

The Biden campaign issued a schedule listing a “campaign stop” in Grand Rapids and a “get out the vote event” in Detroit, but said details on times and places will follow.




Biden also will be in Grosse Pointe Farms for a campaign fundraiser.

Southfield attorney Barry Goodman told MLive that he is hosting a fundraiser for Biden on Monday with former Michigan Gov. Jim Blanchard and Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan. Goodman, a Biden donor and member of the Democratic National Committee, said “there’s been a lot of people energized by the large potential” that Biden will earn the Democratic presidential nomination.

. .“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice.” — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

I'd be surprised if he didn't. Yes, crowd size isn't always an indicator of success at the polls, but the ability to generate enthusiasm will be at least somewhat important in November. People mocked Obama's crowds in 2008 but the enthusiasm definitely helped him win the primaries and the general. He also made smart use of rally crowds by getting everyone in line to sign up for the campaign e-mail list, recruiting volunteers while waiting in line, and in some cases doing a rally followed by a march to the polls for early voting.
