    Remember that time over a decade ago when the Democrats became champions of LBG rights overnight because Biden accidentally told everybody Obama wanted gay marriage legalized? Joe’s brain was leaking even back then.

        That all sounds correct from what i remember. Obama team’s official statement was that his views “evolved” on marriage equality. And it did conviently happen right before they won anyway. Total opportunist

      I have a theory that they had some old white guy as Biden’s VP, but then he went off script during that debate and promised his VP would be a black woman, so they scrapped him and notified Kamala. The democrats are very good at selecting good candidates from a pool of millions of people lol

        Stacy Abrams went on tv with Biden and very clearly thought she was about to be announced as VP, then when she realized she wasn’t getting picked was just awkward for the rest of the segment
