Dang it.. I cannot get my Wednesday cleared to listen to VP Biden announce..

[Peacetrain]

I have been trying to get my calendar cleared on Wednesday, so I can catch the Veep announce.. and I am booked up all afternoon.. and have only 2 hours between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM open to sit in front of my TV so I can cheer and whoop it up when he announces.. fingers crossed, that he will decide that the late morning is the PERFECT time to announce.

First thing up.. I want to hear what his proposals are for his first year.. that is the one that you get to get most of your proposals and policies through..

We are desperate, and I mean desperate for infra structure rebuilding.. our bridges are the worst in the nation in Iowa.. we are an accident away from disaster one of these days..

We need to solidify access to health care for those who do not have it.. and give people some peace of mind..

We have to get our government outreach to the world back up and running.. embassies filled.. and a full check out of who has been snooping in our nation while Trump has turned us over to the Russians

So many things to straighten out that other new Presidents have not had to deal with..

And I am stuck... I have been waiting for this for almost a year... nuts

If not there will be plenty of clips.

[Peacetrain]

5. I can..but it is not the same True Blue

sigh..just hope he announces at 1 PM EST.. because I will be parked in front of the TV... I have been waiting on pins and needles for him to announce.. its going to be pretty embarrassing with me whopping it up at the Dr.'s office while trying read my cell phone..

12. I wondered about the time.

Know how you feel. I will DVR to watch over again.

Just like Carol Burnett, back on METV!

4. I love your enthusiasm for Biden.

"fingers crossed, that he will decide that the late morning is the PERFECT time to announce."

I hope that works out for you. If not, you are going to have a great Wednesday evening celebrating.

[Peacetrain]

7. Ahhh thanks WeekiWater..

late morning would be great.. I promise I will try NOT to be the most annoying person you have ever talked to on Wednesday.. just be patient.. I will be the one with a gazillion smiles on her posts..

8. One of my favorite songs!

19. I'm actually on a real train - crossing the country.

Tuning into DU to get my news!

Missed the town hall dang it.

9. Should be on YouTube...

fairly shortly after the announcement.

[SFnomad]

10. I'm going to guess that he will announce earlier, rather than later

For better or for worse, the "first day haul" has become a metric the talking heads have deemed important. And with an earlier announcement, the longer that day can be to scoop up the cash.

11. Has it occurred to you that nobody's actually been invited to a rally?

Nor has anyone reported that a rally permit has been issued?

[True Blue American]

13. Checked to see.

Rally planned.

14. Nope...

This is same story I posted on Friday: https://www.democraticunderground.com/128776656

The point is that there have been no reported details about when, where and who's going to attend with less than 48 hours to go.

15. Phila says no permit issued for the Art Museum steps, where he was rumored to do his Rocky thing.

[brooklynite]

17. And now his campaign teams has apparently cancelled Charlottesville...

[nolabear]

16. Is there no time scheduled? We West Coasters have to get up early for everything!

I hope he'll hold off til after 7am PDT. I need coffee to toast the campaign with.

18. Are you free on Thursday - announcement moved to then.
