He was not responsible for the hostages being taken. They were taken in response to U.S. sponsored coup against the democratically elected leader of Iran.

I fought that fight 42 years ago and we were right then and right now.

It was the proper thing to do.

I'm not easily moved by political ads, but that misted me up. Whoever does their ads is a political genius. Joe needs someone like that.

I will credit Reagan and Bush* (though I detested both) with being able to deliver an empathic response in stark contrast to this malignant narcissist in the WH. Biden exudes empathy. I get a virtual hug just watching him.

It's what we're going to need to take our country back from the hateful ones. Make no mistake, there are a lot of "trumpies" who love wallowing in division and hatred. But there are more of us.

This ad is powerful. I don't watch much TV so does anyone know where these ads are playing?
