Joe Biden, the Politician.
A look at the voting record and past statements of a democratic front runner.
I’m not interested in “slandering” any candidates.
I genuinely do not want to come off as though I just don’t like them, and I’m only here to attack them just because I would prefer another candidate. The fact that I have a long list of issues with Joe Biden is well documented and I stand by that position. That being said, I feel it is incredibly important to discuss WHY I adamantly refuse to ever vote for Joe Biden. It has nothing to do with my support for Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, or Tulsi Gabbard.
It has to do with voting records.
I am not interested in the promises of Joe Biden the candidate. I am interested in Joe Biden the politician. I care about who he is as a leader, and what he has done to advocate for average Americans. What matters is how he has positioned himself in the grand scheme of American politics, and that should be the focus of scrutiny for not just Biden, but every single one of our candidates.
But because he is a leading frontrunner, I think it’s fair to say we owe it to ourselves to analyze Joe Biden’s history in politics. Let’s take a look at Biden’s past statements and extensive record on a few of the key issues.
