In the past, Presidents have had dementia and other serious problems. Woodrow Wilson is a good example. He was diagnosed with atheroslcerosis. His wife ran the country for the second term.

Biden shouldn't rule out a second term if he wins

Why would anyone here care about this article from *CNN* speculating about Biden running for a second term?


The article has value because it exposes a leftist's concern that Biden has hamstrung his potential administration with Biden's talk of a single term. A theoretical second term gives him more power to push the agenda but any talk from Joe about eight years is just insulting. One can't sell that and risks his own legitimacy pushing the notion. So yeah, Joe is painted in the corner one way or the other, so says this leftist.

While I dint know enough about history to know the validity of this statement, do you have any links to his wife running the show?

I've not really paid much attention to O'Reilly's commentary before...don't agree with all of this, but its worth a watch IMHO.

It has been reported in many accounts that Wilson suffered a severe stroke, and possibly a series.
A couple of discussions based on a search for “woodrow wilson stroke wife”:

Back to my question a page or so back regarding traditional "blue dog" Democrats, what is the speculation that they will punch the "D" button for Sleepy Joe just because "they've ALWAYS voted Democrat"?? I know my S-I-L's family has punched the "D" button all their lives (from Iowa), but she hates Trump on many levels, so I don't consider her in the "traditional" camp.

As stated, I don't associate with "blue dog" D's, so I don't have a feel for what's in the wind in terms of their vote this year.

As for the video above...GOOD STUFF!! Regarding Corona Beer virus, I think it has now worn extremely thin with this populace. People are sick and tired (no pun intended) of masks, "shelter in place", "stay safe, work from home", social distancing, no human contact, and all the other tripe the Demoshits are spewing. Whoever pulled the trigger on it to make President Trump "look inept", pulled it too soon, IMHO, and the political value of that "crisis that didn't go to waste" for the Leftards has run its course.

What they are doing, as many here know, is taking advantage of the fact that 40% of the population are willing to vote for anyone not Trump.

Do no harm....that is all they are trying to do.

Keep uncle stinky finger and Sen. Kneepads from pissing off the moderates.

Great video, and IMO, surrogates, including Obama, are keeping their distance a bit because they know it is a shitshow, Shotgun Joe has no chance at beating Trump.

I agree, maybe by as much as 50%. Of course, 50% of zero is still zero.

If your only source of news is CNN, you will hit the D button, just ask my Mom. I won't talk politics with her, no reason in her arguments, only Trump bad

My Mom is the same way. Southern democratic her whole life. But modern media has made her worse.
She hates DT, we can’t even talk about it so we don’t.

Biden and the surrogates don't have to try. I their eyes they have control of major news outlets and most social media. They can blast the American public 24/7 with canned Biden speeches while bashing Trump and no one in the campaign has to lift a finger.

As far as they are concerned, the people are stupid sheep and the fix is in. No need to try. Keep Biden hidden so he doesn't screw it up and wait until November.

I think Trump should demand several debates and expose this nut for what he is in public.
