I hope I live to see Biden get the recognition that he deserves. He accomplished so much during his four years in the White House and all we hear is how frail and incompetent he was. That's certainly not what I witnessed.

Some of the legislation that he got passed with such small majorities was incredible and it was legislation that made a huge difference in the lives of so many people. And of course there was the handling of the pandemic.
