Josh Shapiro is so impressive

[wryter2000]

He was just on with Nicole. He’s calm, rational and convincing. Add him to the list of Dems who should be taking over in the future.

1. I just saw him too and had the same impression.

John Heilemann asked some good questions as well.

5. i first saw him in a rally for Fetterman

Obama was there, too. And Shapiro had me stuck to the screen. Fabulous rally.

I was going to watch MSNBC online but they have a procedure where you have do the whole password thing, email address etc. for a 1-week trial before they began charging you at different tier levels...not cheap, $74.99 to $99.99 a month so I declined as I might forget to cancel it.

Anyway, California Gov. Newsom, very impressive too, is part of our deep bench if it come to it.

11. Thanks.

12. You're welcome.

I tried to find it on You Tube for you but couldn't find it then I checked out our own DU.

6. And the GQP says that the Dem bench is weak .....

I guess that the likes of hot-to-trot, looking for love while not legislating Noem, Green and Boebert are all "great" representatives for political office

For Shapiro, the sky's the limit. I saw him about 5 years ago--can't remember where--could have been on Ari's show, but he was so well-measured, intelligent, smart and so heartfelt with what he was speaking on. I notice that the mostly corporate, greedy for ad dollars, tRump loving media's going after Kamala more and more on top of going full ageism about Pres. Biden's age. Not much to comment on how old, mentally deranged and treasonous tRaitor tRump is though

8. Even Dems act like our bench isn't deep

They say we wouldn't have anyone if Biden didn't run. We have more talent than we know what to do with. I could think of 20 future presidents. Shapiro being one of them.

13. Thanks for posting. He's a common sense, plain spoken guy who knows...

how to explain things so people understand. It's a virtue, and an asset for a politician. It was said about Bill Clinton during the Obama campaigns as he surrogated for Pres. O.

IMO it's something that Joe Biden has if people pay attention and listen instead of automatically assigning that old trope of him continually stuttering and making verbal gaffes. They seldom happen now and the MSM needs to stop perpetuating it.

[Rhiannon12866]

14. I couldn't agree more on both counts.

Governor Shapiro is an excellent communicator and is getting the job done!

As for President Biden, he is, bar none, the most experienced president in our history - with 36 years in the Senate and 8 years in the Executive branch. He know the players, what's important to the people and was chosen by President Obama for his knowledge of foreign policy. Of course he's older, having all that experience under his belt - but he's the president we need right now in these perilous times!
