Biden and Trump on issues like race, sex, electoral college, and pets

I’ve put together a list showing where each candidate stands on issues lots of voters care about. I may be adding to this list as we get closer to election but for now, here are a few key examples of where each major candidate stands on important issues.


Abortion:

Biden… supports a woman’s choice but early in his political career was not supportive of Roe v. Wade.

Trump… supports life for the unborn baby, although he admits early in his adulthood he was pro-choice


Masks being mandatory: 

Trump… doubts making them mandatory on a national level is necessary

Biden… if President, he’d make them mandatory in public


Electoral college:

Biden… supports the use of the electoral college

Trump… would rather have a popular election where whoever gets the most votes, wins


Equality between gay/straight:

Trump… supports tradition marriage (man and woman)

Biden… supports equality in regards to marriage rights


Racism against black people:

Biden… opposed busing in the 70s / wrote bill in 1994 that heavily leaned towards imprisoning people of color / famously said in 2020, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” 

Trump… lawsuit in 1973 alleging Trump was discriminating against black people looking for homes in one of his apartment buildings 


What kind of music do they listen to:

Biden… older rock like Bruce Springsteen and Tina Turner, also bands like Coldplay and Adele have been on his playlist

Trump… all kinds from Tony Bennett to Eminem, reggae to Elton John


Do they have any pets:

Trump… no pets

Biden… has German Shepherd named Major and possibly another named Champ

My family are beach people (part 2)

As I said yesterday, here are more photos from the beach week I spent with family in north Florida. All of us have so much fun at the beach whether it’s playing with dogs, water sports, or just playing in a nearby pool. Oh, also there was karaoke by me and my sister. She performed “Sweet Caroline” to chants of an encore and I performed “9 to 5” on a level Dolly would sure approve of. 😉

My family are beach people

I was recently down in Florida, which is probably obvious if you follow the blog, visiting family for a week. Check out the awesome people (and dogs) I get to call “family” in the photos below. We are an active bunch, that’s for sure. I especially love how the skimboarding photos look. More photos in a post tomorrow so please stop back by when you have a chance 🙂

marvelous wildlife in and around the Gulf of Mexico (part 2)

I just had to make a second post of some of north Florida’s coastal beauties because I didn’t want them to get lost in one single post. So take a look at the previous post here and then follow up with these photos taken near Alligator Point, Florida. As always, thanks for stopping by! Also, be sure to check back soon for another post featuring breathtaking images of dolphins at play. Well, the dolphins do all the breath-taking, I just happen to catch them on camera!

Playful dolphins of the Gulf of Mexico

I have a few videos of dolphins jumping (posted on YouTube here) but on this particular day recently I feel very lucky to have captured a still images of dolphins jumping and swimming behind my Dad’s boat (while people were tubing, no less!). I have loved dolphins for a long time so this was a treat to witness! Check out the photos and feel free to comment with stories of your own below…
