LETTER: President Joe Biden brings the nation hope

Updated March 12, 2024 - 3:21 pm

I watched the State of the Union address. I was so relieved that it showcased a genuine leader discussing tangible accomplishments with a clear vision for our future. It wasn’t a staged performance filled with fabrication, doom and gloom.

This presentation made a compelling case for extending President Joe Biden’s term by another four years. It also served as a poignant reminder of the significance of the election, positioning it as one of the most crucial in our nation’s history.

While we’ve experienced noteworthy elections in recent times, none has carried stakes as high as this one. In November, I believe the fate of our democracy hangs in the balance. The pivotal question emerges: Do we chart a course toward progress and improvement, or do we witness the erosion of our democratic ideals into a potential dictatorship?

The responsibility lies with us, the voters. Vote as if this were the final election, for the choices made now will resonate far beyond the present moment.

Mr. Trump would have not won if his affair with Stormy Daniels had been made public after the “Access Hollywood” tapes in which Mr. Trump brags that he grabs women by the genitals.

LETTER: A balanced approach on the energy transition

We will never be free of fossil fuels. A balanced approach is needed. Politically doctrinaire positions on both sides won’t help us resolve the current problems.

I contend that the gas produced by the City Council is worse than anything the common folk could ever think of.
