On Thursday, Vice President Joe Biden returned to the campaign trail where he spoke at a rally in Las Vegas, Nevada. After a surprise visit at a local campaign office, Biden spoke at a rally supporting both Hillary Clinton and U.S. Senate candidate Catherine Cortez Masto. During his speech, he went after Republican Donald Trump and his comments about women and immigrants saying that we are better than that as a country. Biden then spoke about Clinton and her plans to move the country forward and continue the progress of the last eight years saying that she is “going to write the next chapter.” He concluded by urging everyone to vote for Clinton and Cortez Masto on November 8.

Since launching her campaign last April, Hillary Clinton has outlined a number of major platform points in a series of speeches. Now that it it is clear that the Republican nominee will be Donald Trump, it is important that Clinton continue to deliver substantive speeches and combat a Trump platform that seems to offer no substance or foundation. Clinton’s platform is built on a career of public service and an understanding of domestic and foreign policies. While no every may agree with points of her platform, taken as a whole it is clear that she has put together a solid plan to more the country forward and ensure that everyone has an opportunity to live up to their full potential.
