He can't do it with a 2nd minority on the ticket, in regards to race or gender.

I'm afraid his ego will sieze the opportunity to use the Vice Presidency to espouse his own views and opinions to the detremment of President Obama's agenda. I think that Obama's Press Secretary will spend far too much time standing in front of the Press Corps prefacing statements with "What The Vice President meant to say was..."Xavier Onassishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345787343828318445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-6412749956660743982008-08-23T21:40:00.000-05:002008-08-23T21:40:00.000-05:00Biden is a fantastic choice, experience, smarts an...Biden is a fantastic choice, experience, smarts and a little chutzpah.<BR/><BR/>ooooo-rah!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-63459297279833967362008-08-23T21:09:00.000-05:002008-08-23T21:09:00.000-05:00I agree with you on the "World Tour" and that our ...I agree with you on the "World Tour" and that our secret prisons and torture should end.

No doubt he is skilled in foreign policy. The other thing Biden brings to the ticket are the lunch pail democrats, the kind like those in my family who don't relate to arugula or George Soros.<BR/><BR/>I knew the more liberal democrats would not be happy with this choice, but Obama already has them in the bag anyhow. He's also the safest choice for those pissed off Hillary supporters. <BR/><BR/>Should be interesting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
