Office of the New Castle County Executive

TRIBUTE Office of the County Executive of New Castle County Be it hereby known to all that The Honorable Thomas P. Gordon, New Castle County Executive is pleased to present this tribute to honor The Honorable Joseph R. “Beau” Biden III It is with great sorrow that County Executive Gordon recognizes the life of service and duty to God, family, and country by the late and Honorable Joseph Robinette “Beau” Biden III, who left this Earth on Saturday, May 30, 2015, at the young age of 46. The County Executive extends his deepest condolences to the Biden family, notably his friend, Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Jr., and he prays that God blesses this family with all that is needed in this incredible time of grief. The Honorable Beau Biden served the State of Delaware well for eight years as Attorney General, in whose office he fought for children, the less fortunate, and against powerful, malicious forces that dared to commit crimes against humanity in the State of Delaware. Beau, as he was affectionately known, also served honorably as a Major in the United States Army’s Delaware Army National Guard and served America in the Iraq War from 2008 to 2009. In the indelible words of President Lincoln, Joseph R. “Beau” Biden III was truly a man “of the people, by the people, for the people”, and all of the Diamond State will miss the closest thing to a prince that Delaware has ever had. Presented on this 5th day of June, 2015, by order of the County Executive ________________________________ Thomas P. Gordon New Castle County Executive No.0939 .

Joe Biden and Hunter Biden
Joe Biden and Hunter Biden Like it or not, former vice-president Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden have been very prominent in the news due to Dump’s seeming obsession to find (or maybe create) information which could implicate them in corruption. Dump thinks that it would be great for his 2020 election chances if he could smear the democrats for hosting a corrupt candidate. Joe Biden has been continually presented as the candidate with the best chance of defeating Dump. In recent months however it seems that Biden’s age and his relatively poor performance in debates is casting some doubts on his suitability as a first choice to defeat Dump. It has never been clear to me why the US voters think Joe Biden would be such a good candidate. He is not just seriously showing his age but his political history provides very little reason to see him as a potential winner! Ironically he is likely to be such a weak candidate that Dump should be welcoming him rather than attacking him. Getting rid of Joe Biden early on in the race may help the Dems to find a better candidate who will be far more successful. By all accounts the Dems need a moderate to defeat Dump. Buttegieg is a moderate with youth on his side, who would probably make an excellent president. Elizabeth Warren is currently painted as too left wing. Whether that would really turn out to be as prejudicial as the media tend to suggest, remains to be seen. She is a certainly a great candidate and she can attract the women’s vote.
