My favorite news program is CNN's NewDay, it starts at 6 am

till 9 am. I have a tiny 12" TV that I keep next to the computer, and it has an old-fashioned VCR built-in, and I use the old tapes over and over to record the program cause I can't get up at 6 am all the time.

A treasure of a bit came on when I replayed this mornings NewDay (oh, and the hosts get along so well with their guests, it's enjoyable....Chris Cuomo, Michaela (?) (whom I really like), and Allison (?). Beats the hell out of Morning Joe (yuk).

Today Margaret Hoover (CNN political analyst and John Avlon, Daily Beast (I think) were on and they discussed Biden. Everybody wants him to run to give America a choice, a real choice, because we are a democracy. Trump is getting a lot of attention because he says what he thinks, and host Cuomo says that so does Joe Biden, but without the crazies... CNN has tapes of their stuff if you want to hear any of it. And they all have heard that Beau wanted more than anything for his dad to run, and I think Joe will feel that he let him down if he doesn't. Hunter is all for it.

I enjoyed it so much. We do need more choices. There's a lot of us who feel like the little kid who said, "the king has no clothes," when everyone was praising his wardrobe...or something similar like that.
