The thing that drives me nuts about VP Biden.. is the same thing that drove me nuts about President

[Peacetrain]

Obama... they cannot talk a good game about themselves for anything.. Trump cannot shut up about how he walks on water and makes the sun rise and is the best of the best.. (starting to gag here)

But VP Biden has the same issue as Pres Obama.. they can wax poetic and Homeric about the successes of others.. but you have to bend their arms behind their backs to get them to sing their own praises and what they have accomplished..

Maybe that is what makes them so good, they just do the job and keep moving... But honest to Pete guys.. you gotta brag it up a little...

1. Acting like a blowhard is NOT the way to go

If that is what it takes then we are truly divided.

2. Well you do not have to be a blowhard to let people know what you have done

and repeat it more than once..

7. It is usually best

if you let the praise come from other people. Otherwise it sounds so egoistical. There are plenty of people who have known Joe for years, who can speak highly of him.

3. anyone who did that would be a turn off. they do talk about their records

and their accomplishments.

but not like trump who has to do that because he is actually a failure. so try to yell the loudest about how great he is as if that will make it true.

4. One of the defining trait of leadership

Is the combination of humility and will. Great leaders are rarely boisterous, instead they carry humility and willpower.

5. What does it mean to you to talk a good game.

President Obama and now Vice President Biden are living rent free in the heads of trump and his criminal cabal.

8. Biden, March 2019: "I have the most progressive record of anybody running ... anybody who would run"

"A guy who ended up becoming our national leader said, 'I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it,'" Biden said, according to ABC News. "They asked me if I'd like to debate this gentleman, and I said, 'No.' I said, 'If we were in high school, I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.'"

9. this is why i am so excited for the debate. ideas not personalities.

i have to admit that i am not a joe fan, and i dont think he really has anywhere to go but down.

but i couldnt be more psyched about the battle of ideas.
