Joe Biden for Pres?

[Accountable]

This guy says he wants to be US President. I saw him frothing at the mouth about stupidity surrounding 9/11, and he claims to have ideas about handling Iraq. Now he says he wants to be president but needs to do more checking to see if he might be viable.

Anybody have personal knowledge of his policies? He's a Democrat, but how far left is he?

The only thing I remember about Biden is that a number of years ago he was accused of and admitted to plagierism in a speech or writing that he did. I believe he was exploring a run at the Presidency back then but his little secret got out and kind of derailed his potential candidacy. Apparently he thinks it's safe to try again.

After this was revealed it then came out that he had gotten a F for plagierism at Law School.......... That is what finally tripped his bid.

The only times i've seen him in the senate committee meetings, he always appears to be pretty partisan. That's not going to help the democrats much. They need to find one viable candidate that will stand up and say what he thinks about issues without consulting the polls first. Just one. Don't know if it can be done though, that's the problem.

He has a commanding demeanor. At first you think he is going to be credible then after he talks for a while you know he wouldn’t cross the party line for a life ring. I’ve seen him be down right vicious during hearings if he doesn’t hear what he likes. I’m sure he has Ideas just like every other Monday Morning Quarterback.

Let him run and I don’t care if he wins. If they have won a national election or a governorship they are already sold out and nobody knows who they really are anyway. I don't think they even know.

He's definitely not moderate. And he has an ego that would make Bill O'Reilly jealous. One of the biggest blowhards in Congress. I can feel the gust of hot air already.

Biden comes from a state far too small to win a presidency. Though I think he's a much better candidate than Kerry. I suspect if '08 went to the Dems conservatives would rather see Biden in the White House than Hillary.

I don't know. I would hate to see either of them in the White House, but you are correct...Biden would make a far better candidate than Kerry. If a Dem were to win, I could handle Bill Richardson.

I'd like to see Barbara Boxer take it. Though I am not a democrat, her victory would sicken and enrage those I despise the most! A taste of what anyone left of Himmler has been feeling since the Supremes selected Bush as the Prez.

Woo hoo. We would have fun just taking those bad hair plugs to task.
