Biden as a centrist
I am thinking that it would be nice to have Biden as president because he is rather a centrist, and that is exactly what the nation needs at this point: someone to try to bring people together. There are plenty of extremists both right and left these days, but also lots and lots of "middle of the road" Americans who would love to see someone to start a dialogue between reasonable people of both sides.
Biden grew up in politics for a couple of decades when, indeed, Democrats and Republicans had different policy goals but still remained friends with the other side and could have a meal with them and discuss policy items in a pleasant manner. That's where he comes from, that's where his political traits lie. Bring people together. Try to solve problems without calling the other side names. Be pleasant to the other side in spite of policy differences.
Wouldn't that be nice? And it would probably get things done that the American people want.
