For a "career politician" Joe Biden is pretty lousy at reading the public. If he loses the next election, his stance on Palestine will be a major cause.

Powerful and excellently written, Paul, as always. I am ashamed to say that since first being old enough to vote (1972, George McGovern for President -- other than voting for Jesse Jackson, could have stopped there), I have consistently voted for Democrats. Vote Republican? Never. The thing is that now there is no way that I'll vote for any candidate for public office who is a member of the Democrat Party, a political party clearly complicit in whatever anyone wants to call the horrors that Israel is committing against the Palestinian people. Cannot happen, will not happen. One has to draw a line somewhere. And if I read you right, the Democratic Party cannot save democracy or, for that matter, anything else of value. Only the people united can do that.
