To the editor: President Biden, angrily pushing again on the suggestion that he get replaced on the highest of the Democratic ticket, jogs my memory a variety of making an attempt to take the automotive keys away from my dad. I’m certain many people can relate to that tough and uncomfortable state of affairs. We need to give our dad and mom as a lot company as attainable and hold their sense of management of their life intact, however take into consideration the others who may be affected by their choice to maintain driving.
My dad, a WWII Navy veteran, was a wonderful driver and drove for 72 years. There wasn’t anybody I felt safer with within the automotive. He by no means had an accident or acquired a ticket. He by no means acquired misplaced. As my dad was beginning to decelerate, small errors occurred and I started to at all times supply to drive. Then I needed to begin insisting. There have been arguments, however I at all times wished my dad to really feel that he was nonetheless in charge of his life.
After a number of lapses in judgment and a close to miss, we informed him these errors have been including up. We had to remove his keys. It was higher for everybody. He survived. He adjusted. He lived one other eight years till age 94, and is remembered and beloved by all.
President Biden commandeered the American Rescue Plan, the Infrastructure Funding and Jobs Act, expanded advantages and providers for veterans uncovered to toxins, and extra. With him within the driver’s seat many issues have develop into attainable.
However at this level, I don’t need to experience in his automotive as a passenger anymore. Time to go on the automotive keys to an skilled, youthful Democrat.

To the editor: All you Democrats on the market who’ve been overtly saying Biden ought to step apart have lowered yourselves to Trump and his cronies’ requirements. Trump is finest at fear-mongering. He’s glorious at making individuals doubt, and by at all times saying adverse issues, individuals begin shopping for into his rhetoric.
If you happen to had doubts about Biden, they need to have been requested privately to him or his workers, not within the public area. You might be as a lot accountable for this drawback as Trump. It’s too late within the election 12 months to vary candidates. Biden has a wonderful cupboard and a very good vice chairman. There isn’t any doubt that the final 4 years have been a lot better underneath Biden, and we have to hold him in workplace. Belief Biden, his cupboard and his VP.
Be certain all Democrats get out and vote; present your assist for Biden; you, yourselves can flip this marketing campaign election round. Trump is not going to win; no person needs a dictator, even the Republicans.

To the editor: Nobody can know the longer term. Changing Biden because the Democratic candidate is way from a certain path to a Democratic president in 2025. I hold pondering of Lyndon B. Johnson bowing out of his reelection marketing campaign in 1968. That call introduced us President Richard Nixon.

To the editor: Donald Trump have to be residing proper — the cosmos is definitely doing the whole lot attainable to ensure he secures a second time period.
The Supreme Courtroom simply gave him a “get out of jail free” card. Fani Willis ruined the Georgia corruption case by having an affair with a colleague; Jack Smith took years to carry a case towards Trump for having incited a riot that resulted in deaths and dozens of accidents to law enforcement officials; Joe Biden acquired older and extra frail; and the democratic management is so blindly loyal that they’re sticking with the one particular person to defeat Trump — by no means thoughts that the Biden who beat Trump is now not the identical. No matter occurred to the regulation of karma?

To the editor: I’m definitely not one of many “elites,” only a involved member of the “ordinaries.” President Biden’s present health is questionable and his unfitness for 4 extra years apparent.
As a lifelong common citizen and Democrat who has by no means voted for a Republican, my president ought to, at a minimal, have the flexibility to suppose cleverly on his ft on this difficult world. President Biden, a real hero with these traits wanted to oppose the revolting Trump, has fallen sufferer to the political illness Conceited Ginsburg-itis. Just like the justice and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, he thinks he’s irreplaceable. Please be a part of me within the fervent hope he makes an entire restoration earlier than it’s too late. This first rate man’s blindness isn’t serving to, however truly rising the superb chance of a felonious felony additional disgracing the presidency.
