Biden : Chicago Rocks

Tomorrow might have been Biden’s Presidential “you betcha” moment, silencing all critics on his age, mental capacities, and policy achievements. Instead, he will emerge as the Democrats' hero, catapulting Kamala to fast-track popularity in beating Trump. President Biden could have stood his ground, proving the doubters wrong. After all, he’s a seasoned politician who has weathered many storms throughout his career. But instead, he took a step back, adhering to his core belief that politics has seasons. His season might have ended, but his legacy and solid political career remain intact for future Democrats to build on and celebrate. Biden's life has centered on devotion and commitment to public service.

Kamala understands that her campaign is seizing on Biden's success and achievements while adding her own twist. The Biden Democrats remember that during the heated time when everyone was pressuring Biden to step down, Kamala did not take center stage. She allowed the process to unfold, respected Biden, and let him take his time to process everything, considering his political position and the party’s future direction.

The Chicago Democratic Convention celebrates Biden’s legacy and staying power as a seasoned and accomplished politician, as well as his commitment to putting America and his party's interests before his own ambitions. Chicago will introduce Kamala as the Democratic front-runner, and if the polls are to be believed, she could become the first woman President, breaking all glass ceilings. However, Chicago will also remind Democrats of the great President they had in Biden. At the end of the day, Biden’s humility will be rewarded with the silent acknowledgment that there would be no glass ceiling for Kamala to break without his decision to withdraw from the race and guide the Democrats the Kamala way.
