      why?

      Obama did the same thing Biden did

      came in on a huge progressive agenda and yes glad we got somewhere on marriage equality but what else did they do?

      a few things every few decades is not enough and is not progress

      they left office with the minimum wage at $7.25, the healthcare situation was no better, they have the same views with the middle east, and almost everything else they campaigned on did not bear fruit

      hoping Harris keeps the fire lit that she going in on over the next four years

        Actually trying to get shit done is amazingly moderating - turns out the president doesn’t have the power to wish things into existence.
