BlingBling Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Barack has chosen Joe Biden to be his running mate. Joe Biden brings extensive foreign policy experience, an impressive record of collaborating across party lines, and a direct approach to getting the job done. Joe Biden is passionate, great in debates and a more effective attack-dog than the ruthless, impudent Romney who by most accounts is the front-runner for the Republican VP spot. Joe Biden is a solid, working-class kind of guy who will do well campaigning in places like PA, OH, WV We have our team, but we also have our work cut out for us. Barack Obama and Joe Biden are the leaders who will bring the change our country needs. But they can't do it alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AngelVision Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 My bet is Hillary didn't want the seat, because she will be running for NY Governor and still plans the 2012 presidential run, so Biden is a good choice for VP!

Bluto Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Joe Biden is one of the funnier guys in Washington. We could use some comedy in this increasingly stupid campaign (both sides). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brady Campaign Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence praised Senator Barack Obama's choice for his vice presidential running mate, Senator Joe Biden. “Joe Biden is a straight talker about the need for common sense laws to keep dangerous people from getting dangerous weapons,” said Paul Helmke, President of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. “He has been a solid advocate for sensible gun laws that protect our police officers and our families. I was proud to stand with him just weeks ago in Philadelphia when he joined with our nation’s mayors in supporting tough crime fighting laws, and also last year when police leaders urged passage of common sense measures to protect law enforcement officers. Our nation would be well served with Joe Biden as our Vice President.” During a Democratic Presidential debate on CNN, Senator Biden expressed concern about a man who submitted a video question asking whether the candidates would protect his “baby,” a fully loaded semiautomatic assault rifle. Senator Biden said, “If that’s his baby, he needs help.” Then he went on to say, “We should be working with law enforcement right now to make sure that we protect people against people who are not capable of knowing what to do with a gun because they are either mentally imbalanced and/or they have a criminal record.” Senator Biden has a comprehensive crime bill awaiting action in the Senate (S. 2237) that would require background checks on all sales at gun shows and reauthorize the now-expired federal ban on military-style assault weapons.
