Yes. The key is to not let lies goes unaddressed. Biden didn't.
He reacted to Ryan's inanities. President Obama's mistake was in being too polite and letting Romney stand there and state lie after lie without appropriately reacting to Romney's nonsense.
Biden was indeed effective, from his knowledge of the issues to his smiles. The republicans know that Biden won and that's why they are getting all grouchy and defensive.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
