"Giving all I have to see my niece and nephew living in a better future". Fox News described Jacqueline, a Security Guard at The New York Times, as an "ordinary worker". We see two everyday Joes and Janes. There was a time when we didn't want polished slick-talkers that were robotic. Now we criticize candidates like Joe for being too human, too down-to-earth. We have a president in the White House who's federal tax system rewards billionaires and punishes the "ordinary worker" all in the name of "creating jobs". We're all already working. If you ask me, a down-to-earth human being is exactly who we need leading this country.

I grew up in the Bay in the 80's and 90's. I was a poor kid with a bad childhood that was on the streets from 14 years old. 12 years of Republican economics made for a childhood that saw both extreme poverty and desperation and extreme wealth and excess. I was a drug addict and hopelessly lost. Gangs, drug dealing, bad people, dodging gunfire and eventually being assaulted and tortured left me a hollow shell of a man, timid and broken, hearing voices and at the edge of insanity. I'm a survivor, by The Grace of God. This year I celebrated 18 years sober. I've raised 3 kids myself from infancy to middle school - and when I say raised, I mean everything. I was a single Dad, just like Joe Biden, raising 3 babies and trying to run my web development business to keep a roof over our heads.
