Back in 2007, I was one of several very enthusiastic Biden supporters on DU during that primary. We started the original Biden support group on Democratic Underground. This was the sort of night that we all hoped for, but never got to see. I am happy to see him do well.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Hurricane Iniki on 9/11/92.. and then after going to New York for 12 years I came back in 2010 when I retired.

And, it was so much nicer in the 70s.. not so commercialized and populated.. lucky you. I lived in San Diego in the 70s so I know from experience... and I have friends who were born here and they may have mentioned it a time or two.

His speech made me tear up. So inpiring.




And the choice of walk-on music, "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield, was brilliant. I wonder if that was Jim Clyburn's suggestion.

It is time. SC's AA vote was pretty forceful and overwhelming. Moderates will go to Biden. As they should.
