| Political Conversation and Debate This forum is not a temporary one. It will exist up to, and after the presidential elections. Some people want to talk or even argue politics, other's don't. Let's see if we can apply some reason and understanding to the debate. |

Vice President Joe Biden (official)
Here it is folks, the official Joe Biden discussion page.
Personally, I liked him in the primary debates for much the same reason that I liked McCain in 2000: he spoke his mind. At the same time, I don't know that much about him, and I am aware of a few concerns I may have with him (IP issues), so let's get to know him here. I'll fix this first post soon with some background info, etc. Joseph "Joe" Robinette Biden, Jr. (born November 20, 1942) Senator for the State of Delaware; assumed office January 3, 1973 Chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations Former Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary Public Accolades: Named one of the five best Senators in U.S. history by the Borgen Project (self described: "The Borgen Project is a movement of people from all walks of life who are working to bring political attention to severe poverty.") Public Admonishments: Plagiarism ("The Kinnick Affair" - my name for it) Racial Sensitivity (Tibor and Obama) 40 time: 10.6 seconds Last edited by kinch; 08-24-2008 at 09:31 AM. |

When the announcement was made in Springfield I knew it had to be either the Illini, the Terrapins or the Buckeyes.

Is that the type of wisdom I'll get too if I post here over 14000 times?

Surprise pick IMO. I had Obama taking Sebelius to appease the female voters who lost Hillary. Biden is just one of the many old white guys who have been hanging out in Washington for too long. They must see him as a draw for old white guys who would otherwise vote for McCain.
Hard to believe McCain could get away with that comment, though. |

I've gotta admit that the Biden selection makes it very hard for me to think about voting for this ticket. Personally, I think Obama did himself a disservice by picking this cat.
