Cleveland Plain Dealer: Joe Biden for President

Integrity matters.

Honesty matters.

Leadership matters.

Compassion matters.

Donald Trump is America’s first president to embody none of these qualities, and for that reason above all others, we ask that you vote for Joe Biden to become president of the United States in January.

It’s not that we believe Biden is a terrific candidate. We don’t. The Democratic Party has once again failed to give the nation the inspiring nominee we need, a leader for a new age.

We believe, however, that Biden would offer much-needed compassionate leadership in a country wracked by anxiety and fear, as well as a devastating pandemic.

Those 20 were probably something like The Klansman, Confederate Statesman, the White Winger, Militia Gazette, NRA Observer, Daily Hatred, etc.

Because they ran Molly Ivans’ articles. I miss her and bet she’d have plenty to say about the goings on today in that great Texas humor, of course.
