Biden has wisdom a president needs

Posted December 01, 2023 12:00 am

I think that Joe Biden exceeds all other presidential candidates in his capable wisdom.

Whether bargaining for peace, fighting Russian aggression, forgiving student loans, rebuilding the US economy or standing with striking workers, Biden brings the wisdom gained from years of experience. For these and many other accomplishments, he deserves resounding re-election.

Looking for an analogue? Try Benjamin Franklin. Also eminently wise and practiced, Franklin signed the draft US Constitution when he had turned 81. He also helped draft the

Declaration of Independence a few years earlier. A humanist revolutionary, Franklin's last published pamphlet argued against slavery.

Joe Biden is Franklin's natural political heir. I will enthusiastically vote to re-elect Joe. You should too.
