Lexington City Council announced recently that it was not able to provide its usual discretionary funding to local nonprofits in the budget for the coming fiscal year.

Joe Biden isn’t likely to ask my advice on whom to pick as his running mate, since I’m neither a Democrat nor a likely Biden voter. I am, however, an American who wants his nation to be led by worthy and inspiring leaders, regardless of their party or political views. In that spirit I offer the sincere opinion that Biden’s best bet for vice president is a long shot most Americans haven’t heard of: Florida Representative Val Demings.
