    'I am home': Biden’s Pa. roots could run from a Scranton kitchen table to the presidency

    SCRANTON – This is where Joe Biden said he learned everything he needed to know about politics.

    The general election on Nov. 3 will determine if North Washington Avenue is just the leafy street where he grew up or the blue-collar neighborhood that made a U.S. president.

    Biden and his friends who live in Green Ridge, and other parts of Scranton, are counting on the latter.

    But it’s not just home. It’s a bellwether.

    Scranton could be a difference-maker

    How Biden fares in the working-class northeast corner of Pennsylvania, where President Donald J. Trump flipped Luzerne County and almost won Lackawanna County four years ago, could be a deciding factor in which presidential candidate wins the battleground state’s coveted 20 electoral votes.

    Biden has guaranteed he’ll win his native Scranton, as Sen. Bob Casey did two years ago by 40 points and a long list of Democrats have before that.

    In a tight race where Biden’s lead in Pennsylvania is within the margin of error, his hometown could be a difference-maker.

    It’s also the place that shaped his personal and public life and where he learned life lessons that will shape his presidency.

    Half Our Waking Hours
    East Hampton
    February 3, 2024

    Dear David,

    Longevity is based on activity. Technology has changed our world. But like so many things in life, it has its drawbacks. When it is used in excess, or at the wrong time, it can affect the way we think, socialize, communicate, and even our health. We spend half of our waking hours in front of a screen.

    We were told that social media would connect us. It has had the opposite effect. Feelings of depression, loneliness, and “I am not good enough” have evolved, leading to a very large increase in suicide rates. I know of a doctor who actually prescribes “walks in the woods” or other nature therapy to heal all kinds of disorders. As we become more addicted to our devices, we become less involved in nature and its healing and longevity powers. I believe that my well-being and longevity (85 now) have come about through my association with nature. I am an Eagle Scout, a science teacher, and founding member and first president of the East Hampton Trails Preservation Society (1980). Mother Nature is the best healer.

    “Take a Hike!”
