From Sir With Love - Lord Black of Crossharbour touts ‘important and successful president’ Joe Biden.
[Frontpage] "There is a pathway to significant success for a President Biden," writes Conrad Black at the outset of "Biden’s Shot at Success," in the November 20 American Greatness, with a photo of Biden fronting an "Office of the President Elect" sign. Black closes out with the prospect of an "important and successful" president Biden. What comes in between will be of great interest to Americans in general and Trump voters in particular.

In recent months, Joe Biden has proclaimed his dedication to "truth over facts" and claimed that he was running for the U.S. Senate. Unsure of his location at any given time, Biden tells African Americans they "ain’t black" if they fail to support him. He claimed he went to Delaware State but didn’t, and so forth. Joe Biden is less accurate than a broken clock, but consider the appraisal by Conrad Black.

"In his most impressive remark in the presidential debates, Biden said that in policy terms, ’I am the party.’" Other impressive debate remarks go missing, but Black recalls that Biden "has been on all sides of almost every issue." No word of Robert Gates’ observation that Biden has been on the "wrong" side of almost every foreign policy issue for the past four decades.

According to Lord Black, Biden "is not a true believer in the radical leftist program," which has "absolutely no chance" of being adopted by Congress. And since there is "no practical likelihood" of a second term, Biden will have to work with Congress. Joe Biden "may rank as the least charismatic figure" elected to the White House "but he has his strengths" and is "generally well liked by all those who worked with him in the Senate and the Obama administration and he certainly knows better than any president since Lyndon Johnson how to work out bipartisan legislative compromises."

Back in October, Lord Black took a somewhat different view in "Joe Biden is No Franklin Roosevelt." That piece dealt with Biden’s plan to expand the Supreme Court, about which Biden said the people had "no right to know." FDR tried to expand the court and Lord Black is one of President Roosevelt’s biggest fans.
