Joe Biden: America Is Ready for ‘Systemic’ and ‘Institutional’ Changes
[BREITBART] Former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'...
told a select group of news hounds on Monday that he is confident that he will win the election and that America is ready for "systemic" and "institutional" changes that will transform the country.Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin was invited to participate in Biden’s exclusive Zoom call, and reported:

One had the impression that Biden senses the potential for not only a big win but a unique moment akin to the 1930s. "I do think we’ve reached the point where one of those trite phrases everybody uses . . . it’s a real inflection point in American history and I don’t believe it’s unlike what [President Franklin] Roosevelt [faced]." He continued, "I think we have an enormous opportunity to make some really systemic changes relates to racism but institutional ways in which we handle things And I think the country is really ready."

Rubin emphasized that while Biden was also careful to present a more moderate persona to nervous voters, he understood that he "must win and win big so as to throw fear in the Republicans and claim a mandate" for larger changes.

Far from turning toward the center, Biden has shifted increasingly left after securing his party’s nomination.

In May, Biden said that the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic was an opportunity to "fundamentally transform" America. In June, Biden called for "revolutionary institutional changes." And on July 4, Biden promised to "transform" America, promising to " rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country."

#3 America has a system and institutions built around the constitution.

Try returning to it, then change the constitution , using the process listed, if still not enough.

#4 Have any of these "Transformers" ever said into what will the US transform?

Systemic racism has been disappearing for 50 years.
This is like the Red Sox and Cubs who never got anywhere for 100 years, then all of a sudden did.
IIRC there was no need to "systemically transform" baseball for that to happen.

#5 The Presidential oath of office requires an oath that the new guy "will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Is Joe good with that, or is he a lying dog-faced pony soldier?

#6 Not too long ago Joe was Vice President for 8 years. Why didn't he do any of these things then?

#7 "America Is Ready for ‘Systemic’ and ‘Institutional’ Changes"

If by "institutional changes" he means give all DemoncRats, Lefties, and other idiots (but I repeat myself) a one-way ticket to Venezuela with no return allowed, I'm certainly ready.

#8 Cultural Revolution. Provoke a civil war and use the power of federal government to crush the American people.
