Joe Biden told an audience in Ottumwa, Iowa Tuesday that his White House would "cure" cancer should he beat President Trump in 2020.
"I've worked so hard in my career, that I promise you, if I'm elected president you're gonna see single most important thing that changes America, we're gonna cure cancer," Biden said to applause.
During his stint as vice president, Biden oversaw the "Cancer Moonshot" initiative of the Obama administration. During his final State of the Union address, Obama announced the program that resulted in a report outlining recommendations for funding and areas to focus research.
But only cancers that affect "identity politics" individuals and not the cancers that Republicans contract.

We're still waiting for El Dumbo to 'heal the earth ' and 'stop the oceans from rising ' . You'll have to get in line, old Groper.

Obama promised if he was elected that the lame would rise up and walk! Messianic Complex much?

Another politician making promises he cannot possibly keep nor does he have any intention of doing so but President Trump is the "bad guy", non-politician who is working everyday to keep his promises; which is either vilified or ignored by the "unbiased" press and the Left, but I repeat myself.

The mechanism is already in place. Just kill every baby in the womb with a quick snip of the spinal cord by an abortionist, or let it rest "comfortably" outside the womb until the doctor and mother decide how to best get rid of it.
At least it won't die of cancer. Compassionate Democratic core value, eh, Joe?

Can he cure water on the brain? Such as his own? The only people more idiotic than this flip flop man are those who believe him.

Although a compassionate objective, where's the money coming from? The Dems want Medicare for all, so does my share of benefits get reduced even more?

Why not? O’bama Did stop the rise of the oceans and allow the planet to begin healing. Compared to that, curing cancer should be a piece of cake.

It was VP nominee, and horndog extraordinaire, John Edwards, running with Jon Cary, who said that if Jon Cary was elected, Christopher Reed would walk again! Cary did not get elected, and Reed died, as did Mrs. Edwards. And while she was dying, Edwards bravely impregnated his mistress, who pretended to be his camera girl.
Shouldn't Edwards be running this time?

I’ve been wondering what democrat voters really think of Joe
Biden. I tried (gently) getting it out of Mrs Tree’s BIL but he
evaded the question. It’s hard to imagine any randomly selected
democrat looking at Biden as anything but a fumbling old fool.

Pandering to doubts and FEARS at its worst...
Groundbreaking research has made tremendous progress in recent years.
Why doesn't he just promise a million dollars in our pockets?

Nothing new here...…...Biden will say anything, anytime if it suits the occasion. He has no morals, no principals and is a total phony.
I don't think he is physically/mentally able to go much further this time around.

Does anybody remember candidates for middle school student council president promising Coca Cola in the water fountains, no more homework, and other improvements to education? Sounds like Creepy Joe’s intellectual growth and intellectual growth has hardly progressed. I think he should stick to easier stuff, like stopping climate change and making sure no woman or little girl gets groped by an entitled old coot...or something.

A crazy stupid man can blurt out any thing he wants and no one is listening. Cancer was cured by Donald Trump when he beat Hillary the real cancer of this nation and Obama was sent packing you dumb doofus.

Learn to govern first, Joe. We aren't electing someone to cure cancer. We are electing someone that can honestly and competently govern the United States. You would be a dismal failure as President.

Dedicated scientists and researchers are struggling to find a cure for this horrid disease. I don't take kindly to Biden using it as a political stunt. I have too many friends and family that have succumbed to cancer. I'll stick to the scientists and researchers and leave Biden to his fumbling for a path to the presidency.

Just like Dr. Oz! Biden will rub some jum-ba juice on your cancer and it will be cured!
Having friends and relatives who succumb to this bane of man's existence I don't take it well that this moron is treating it so cavalierly

Yes, #16. Groundbreaking research which would never have happened if Joe’s old boss had managed to pass his desired “single payer” healthcare scam.

Seems kind of a waste to cure cancer when Global Warming is going to destroy the world in 11 1/2 years anyway.
Maybe he ought to save the world BEFORE he cures a disease.

No one ever asks the obvious questions when some of the ass hat politicians spout off like this- "How you gonna do that?".
I could cure cancer in a few years, too- by putting a ten billion dollar reward out to the first company or individual who comes up with a proven cure for the disease- all forms of it. I would immediately cut out all grants for searching for a cure and limit all funding to nothing but proven cures! That would stop all of this bull about, "University of "X" cancer researchers have an exciting new potential cure for cancer..." Blah, blah, blah, then they get their ten million dollar grant to do more research and we never hear another word about it. When cornered they all go, "Well, at the time it did look promising. But, then, the FDA came and we found out it would not be approved...so..."
Another federal agency they better get on board with a cure for cancer is the Social Security Administration. They sure as Hell do not need another 609,640 people (2018 statistics) to keep right on living and collecting their 18 billion dollars a year SS checks. My 10 billion dollar reward system sounds downright cheap by comparison. But, I would almost guarantee you there would be a cure for the dread disease within two years! Finding cures for cancer would be like the 1896 Klondike Gold Rush all over again.
