They vote for Speaker. They don't take turns. They're not in a union.Well, it's Hoyer's turn as speaker, isn't it?

Actually, there two houses/chambers. Upper and lower.House actually.
Hakeem Jeffries is the odds on favorite of many.They vote for Speaker. They don't take turns. They're not in a union.
I like him. Most thoughtful, careful speaker on the Hill. It takes getting used to (the pauses between thoughts), but he never makes an error. Very intelligent man. I really don't know much about him, but that's why/what makes me independent. I look at the person first. Party and ideology take back seats to the man or woman...on the train...in Snowpiercer.Hakeem Jeffries is the odds on favorite of many.

Jeffries is a bit of a rarity in the Dem party. A moderate unafraid to speak his mind and willing to publicly call out uber progressives for their attempts to derail any legislation they don’t completely agree with.I like him.

I need to trust the words. If I trust the words, I then look to trust the person. If I trust the person, and there is another candidate I also trust, then I'll look to their policy positions. Party and ideology never enter the equation. I will vote trust over policy every single time.
Sadly, earning my vote through trust has been rare. I've always trusted Biden, but before 2020, the last candidate I trusted was McCain.
Oddly enough, the three presidents who I most respect as human beings all failed, Ford, Carter and GW Bush. Ford is a special case, of course.
