Great video interview of Joe Biden and Tom Vilsack together, from an Iowa TV station [View all]

This is from WHO in Des Moines, Iowa:

https://whotv.com/2019/12/01/insiders-12-1-19-tom-vilsack-explains-why-joe-biden-is-the-most-electable-candidate-against-president-trump/

In the first video clip there, which runs more than 13 minutes:

Vilsack talks about Biden's role in the economic recovery at the start of the Obama administration, and his role in passing the ACA.

Biden's also asked about Medicare For All.

The reporter asks whether the campaign's emphasis on Biden's electability is enough for the actisvists who usually show up at the caucuses.

Vilsack points out this is a different election, with the country so much at stake.

Biden adds that it isn't just about electability, that his policies ARE progressive, but they're progressive and realistic.



The second video clip, which is less than 2 minutes, is Vilsack responding to the question about whether Biden "still has his fastball."

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
