For the convenience of the reader-
ship outside of the United States,
whose interest I value greatly, it
is enough to beg their indulgence
in yet another domestic political
comment, with repercussions, how-
ever, of broader potential reach.
It has become the responsible view,
that projects under way in the cur-
rent Presidency are of sufficient
vulnerability to unravelling by a
successor, even of the same Party,
to favour one whose professional
investment in them is unquestion-
able, whose moral commitment to
them may be trusted, whose sup-
port of them will not subject
them to extraneous denigration,
and whose capacity to shoulder
them is demonstrable.
This therefore obligates those who
concur with the first part, to sup-
port the implication of the second.
The only American politician defined
by these criteria is Joe Biden.
Let's see that he runs, and let's be
ready to extend every encouragement.
