Joe Biden n'est pas un remède miracle à ce qui fait souffrir/ce dont souffre l'Amérique. Mais c'est un homme bien qui redonnerait de la stabilité et de la civilité/du civisme à la Maison Blanche. Il a tout ce qu'il faut pour commencer la longue et difficile tâche de réunir/rassembler/ remettre sur pied un pays fracturé. C'est la raison pour laquelle, si nous avions un (bulletin de) vote, il irait à Joe/ il serait pour/en faveur de Joe. Si nous pouvions voter, nous voterions pour Joe .
