It is my opinion that Joe Biden did the right thing by dropping out of the US presidential race. He may be perfectly healthy for a man of his age and still have acute mental faculties. His fumbling mistakes and his general physical demeanour, however, have led to a perception that he is not up to the job of being the next President of the US. He would have lost the election because of how he is perceived.
He is, now, right to concentrate his considerable abilities to solving the conflict between Palestine and Israel, to ensure a lasting and just peace. If he can do this he will be recognised as one of the greatest Presidents of the US.
He was also right to endorse Kamala Harris as the next prospective candidate. Ms Harris is very intelligent and comes across as a strong character who has an sharp sense of humour. She is also socially liberal. She is just the right person to put the misogynistic, spiteful and hateful populists in their place. Machismo men are secretly frightened of a strong and intelligent woman, and Kamala Harris has all of the character and ability to appeal to the American public in order to win the election. She can protect the American people from the worst aspects of prejudice and extremism. I wish her well and hope that she wins.
