Despite the fact that Nicolle Wallace worked for the George W. Bush administration, she seems to be one of the few Republicans on this planet that I actually like. I find her television show on MSNBC called “Deadline: WhiteHouse” to be well done, interesting, and often kind of fun. Ms. Wallace is always professional, and almost always knows what she wants to say as well as what question to ask which of the many guests that she has on her show. This is because Nicolle Wallace uses a teleprompter.

I can tell you this with great certainty, not just because everyone in live television uses a teleprompter, but because I actually saw one of the teleprompters that she uses live on air a couple of weeks ago. Nicolle was being televised from her left side, and off to her right, you could see the entire teleprompter screen, from the big digital clock at the top that she uses to figure out when to end her show to the huge words that were printed on the teleprompter screen that told me what she was going to say before she even said it. That teleprompter, along with the other ones she has, is why if she loses her place, she can regain it immediately. It is why she always looks so professional on the air.

So much of what we see on live TV nowadays consists of professionals reading from teleprompters that some of us actually forget what it looks like when someone is giving a speech and repeatedly forgets his or her lines. It actually looks just like Joe Biden sometimes. You see, when Joe Biden gives a speech, he does not have to deal with just his stutter. For some reason, unknown to me, he also does his speeches, his CNN town halls, and his political rallies without a teleprompter, without 3x5 notecards and without any prepared notes at all. Because of this, he does what many of us would do if we were to give a speech but had no notes and no teleprompter—he forgets his place.

Now, imagine taking away Nicolle Wallace’s teleprompter and the printed pages on her table that she sometimes needs her glasses to read. Do not allow her any cue cards or notes of any kind. Now see how often she loses her place. I bet she does it all the time. I bet people would be amazed at “how bad” her show had suddenly gotten. Some might even wonder if she had suddenly gotten mentally impaired. Nope, she just would no longer have any way of finding her place.

Johnny Carson and David Letterman both used note cards to remind them what questions to ask guests their guests. James Lipton, the great interviewer of The Actor’s Studio who recently passed away, had really big blue note cards with his questions on them to ask his guests. These people had first-rate shows year after year because they actually had notes to remind them where they were. Altogether, this makes me believe two things:

1. We should all be free to tell everyone who is saying that Joe Biden has dementia to just quit. People who campaign for President usually get about four hours of sleep a night and are constantly traveling from town to town, all while having to remember new names and facts at each location. Since Joe Biden obviously is not using a teleprompter, cue cards, or handheld notes to give his speeches, he is, from time to time, losing his place, just as most of us would do if we had no cues to remind us of where we were in our speeches. 2. Someone on Joe Biden’s campaign, for the love of God, needs to spend a measly $2K from the $22 million that he just received to buy a teleprompter machine. Either they do that, or his team needs to start making up cue cards, or starts simpy printing some notes for him to put on the podium when he speaks. There is currently a coordinated effort to say that Joe Biden has Dementia, and nothing would shut these people up faster than Joe Biden to stop losing his place when he speaks to the public: The Disinformation Campaign Being Launched Against Biden: There is no data to support the allegation that he is in cognitive decline.

Former President George W. Bush gave a speech the Friday after September 11, 2001, and because he spent a lot of time memorizing a speech that was well written, he brought down the house. This is the potential power of hitting every note when you speak. Joe Biden is twice as bright as George W. Bush will ever be. His campaign team should do whatever it takes to make him look at least as good as potato brained George W. Bush. They should buy a teleprompter, make cue cards, or have Biden use preprinted notes. There is a good chance Biden may soon be President. Let us start right now to make his speaking engagements look way better than the way George W. Bush did when he fumbled his words because he had not prepared some notecards or the way that Donald Trump looks when he says stupid things all of the time.
