Hi, my name is Brayden Harrington and I am 13 years old. And without Joe Biden I wouldn't be talking to you today.

About a few months ago I met him in New Hampshire. He told me that we were members of the same club: we stutter. It was really amazing to hear that someone like me became Vice President.

He told me about a book of poems by Yeats he would read out loud to practice. He showed me how he marks his addresses to make them easier to say out loud. So I did the same thing today.

And now I'm here talking to you today about the future, about our future. My family often says, “When the world feels better,” before talking about something normal, like going to the movies.

We all want the world to feel better. We need the world to feel better. I'm just a regular kid, and in a short amount of time Joe Biden made me more confident about something that's bothered me my whole life. Joe Biden cared.

Imagine what he could do for all of us. Kids like me are counting on you to elect someone we can all look up to, someone who cares, someone who will make our country and the world feel better. We're counting on you to elect Joe Biden.

None of the victims of BLM are going to give a fuck about Biden because they are dead.

Well played Biden, well played.

Also: Tell this kid to try pot if he wants to feel good. Biden is a shitty substitute drug.

It would be pretty tragic if this 13-year-old Biden fan commits suicide when Biden loses the election.

Aaaahh yes. The classic "get a kid that knows nothing about politics but has a disability and looks cute, give him a script and watch the crowd go nuts" trick.  They want our children to look up to the guy who stands for nothing, who has no true values to speak of.  He sold out on almost every issue as soon as the money went the other direction.  That's shameful. And that's why he is the last person I'd want any of my children to look up to. Not that Trump is much better.

There are so many more inspirational figures to choose from that encourage hard work and success in the face of adversity.

Politicians and celebrities are not my first choice for my kids either. Why would I want my kid to become narcissistic? (which is a required trait for both of those professions)

Generally speaking, I agree. Although, there a few exceptions. For example, Dan Crenshaw is someone who is genuinely virtuous, I think.

I feel bad for the kid. He probably practiced so much to avoid stuttering as much as possible but the videotapers probably kept telling him to redo do it until he stuttered

Are you seriously suggesting that evidence would change your opinion?

Color me skeptical.

After months of debunking the claim that Trump called white supremacists "good people," some debunking coming from Jake Tapper of CNN of all places...

Biden still had the chutzpah to repeat the divisive false charge at the DNC convention, to which all of MSM fell over themselves claiming Biden the "great unifier" while spreading rhetoric like that which could actually start a race war.

It's typical of any Trump hater. fabrications, omissions, and misrepresentations are just a tool to a goal. The goal of power, people be damned.

This situation is really rather simple. There is one clip that shows Trump making erratic gestures. If there are multiple such clips which are able to establish a history of such behaviour, the situation becomes fairly cut and dry. I'm not sure why you're quibbling about opinions.

Admittedly it won't make a difference overall, just because Trump has a long list of legitimate character defects such that this one isn't likely to make a dent into his record.

Not at all. Truth is fairly important. Being able to substantiate your assertions is also fairly important.

So Trump is better  than Biden?  Do you mean that Trump gives people who dont stutter ---most of humanity---   hope for USA and humanities future? And how far into the future?

Trump is better in the sense he doesn't want the country to spiral into a donor-driven socialist mosh pit. That's about all he has going for him, though.

Sounds like something out of science fiction horror story or the gates of hell.  Is there a movie out yet? Is it call 'Socialist Mosh Pits of Hell'?

If coming out soon will it be rated PG or R?  Who will play the part of Don Trumpet --aka Trump-my-own-horn before you go to sleep at night---.

LOL. It really does. 

It would probably be R rated... Too much assault on Lady Liberty for young eyes, if you know what I mean.

LOL, glad you have a sense of humor.  And the giant orange orangutan stood high above the city, towering above all who opposed him.

Quick we need to find a beautiful young lady to pacify the giant ape.  How bout Stormy Daniels?  It worked once, why not again?

Thats pacification by a kick in the private parts. I was thinking of something more lady like.  Is there a young lady of Liberty?

How bout that playboy model he was dating if not boinking?  Since this a 13 year olld boys threaded, I guess we have to keep this clean.

On 2nd thought, at some age in there I was liked looing at naked women.  Maybe slightly dirty is just what we need for this PG movie.

Giant orange ape fends off S'ocialist Mush Pit from Hell' in NY city near the Lady of Liberty statue.  WOW! what a movie that could be!

what? cause biden got him to over come his stuttering? this kid acts like biden helped him overcome stage 3 cancer. i'm not gonna elect someone just cause he helped a random kid with a problem as mundane as stuttering.

The movements in the original clip do seem to be more erratic than the ones sourced in that article I have to say.
