Reply #80: I generally don't do "mushy", but my enthusiasm [View All]

is unprecedented for me. I was too young to vote for Kennedy, but I think the enthusiasm I've encountered for Joe Biden is very similar to what I remember with Kennedy. My daughter is completely on board and my son discovered Biden back in 2004, shortly after I did. For him, it was a no-brainer. Something about Biden set him apart from other politicians and my son saw that. He never forgot that "first impression" and everything since has reinforced it.

For all three of us, we did not have any preconceived opinions about the candidate, so we were able to judge him from a fresh perspective. Since then I have studied the man and his history and he is still my first choice.
