Mr. Biden seems to connect with "real people" in Penn...I am from NY (L.I)originally and saw what happened in the Reagan years when the "war on unions" and average people (who make up this country) ..(unfortunately for billionaires, we in the middle class are on to their machinations.)

My father , a war veteran with his own business, started being treated as a second class citizen bcs he was in a Union...... My father passed away with FUNB (First union) putting liens on his property which he owned since the 60's......

I thank God for this forum , Thom Hartmann, and Mr, Biden and Obama, who don't present false fronts and shills...and seem to actually care about middle class America. I hope he runs......

None of this is mentioned in mainstream "newz". In late 2007 people were advised to "suck it up and walk away" from their homes by mainstream "economists"...Banksters eluded accountability, as usual.

What a sad commentary for Americans...We need to speak out and fight for a quality of life, before it is completely destroyed by repubs.
