George Washington - to - Joe Biden - to - the American People

 George Washington was asked to be the king of America, and because he was a man of honor he said No.  He said the whole idea of America is that it broke away from the rule of kings.  

Now President Joe Biden says the same thing.  He voluntarily steps away from running for a second term and passes the torch to his Vice President, Kamala Harris.  And he very clearly says that her opponent wants America to make him king 

So now it is up to America - do we vote for a man who promises to end the Rule of Law, who “hints” that he will be in office for a third term, who promises to attack and prosecute his perceived enemies - from Republicans who investigated his insurrection, to cabinet members who said he was a dumb fuck, to actual news organizations that reported the actual news, to….all who don’t worship him? 

In other words, do we vote to make a man to be above the law and who turns democracy into a pretense - does America vote to make The Former Guy a king?

Or do we vote for a politician who will preserve democracy and the Rule of Law?  This election is not about policy differences. This election is about preservation of American Democracy itself.
