" (CNN) -- Sen. Barack Obama has picked Delaware Sen. Joe Biden to be his running mate, multiple Democratic sources tell CNN. The longtime Democratic senator was long considered a likely choice for vice president, but the buzz surrounding him intensified after he returned earlier this week from a two-day trip to the Republic of Georgia after Russian troops invaded. Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, brings years of experience that could help counter GOP arguments that an Obama administration would be inexperienced on foreign policy. Biden abandoned his own White House run after a poor showing in Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucuses. He also ran for the 1988 Democratic presidential nomination but dropped out after charges of plagiarism in a stump speech. The 65-year-old was first elected to the Senate in 1972. Shortly afterwards, his first wife and daughter were killed in a car accident. He considered resigning, but decided to continue with his political career. Biden is currently serving out his sixth term, making him Delaware's longest-serving senator. Biden is married and has three children. He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Delaware and got a law degree from Syracuse. Don't Miss * Obama's VP choice to be announced Saturday * Obama: I've decided on my running mate In 1988, Biden suffered an aneurysm and nearly died but has recovered fully. One of Biden's grandfathers was a Pennsylvania state senator, according to the Almanac of American Politics. Biden will make his first big speech as the VP candidate on Wednesday, August 27 -- the third night of the Democratic convention."

the thing i really really agree with

Quote :

" Honesty.(dude put it not me) Biden’s most notorious feature is his mouth. But in his youth, he had a stutter. As a freshman in high school he was exempted from public speaking because of his disability, and was ridiculed by teachers and peers. His nickname was Dash, because of his inability to finish a sentence. He developed an odd smile as a way to relax his facial muscles (it still shows up while he’s speaking today) and he’s spent his adulthood making up for any comments that may have gone unmade during his youth. Today, Biden’s conversational style is tiresome to some, but it has one outstanding feature. He is direct. No matter who you are, he tells you exactly what he thinks, before he tells it to you a second, third and fourth time.(emphasis added)"

lol at the pic

I'm sure he'll say something hilarious between now and November, though

I'm looking forward to it

it begins.

Quote :

"No sooner had word spread of his selection than McCain's campaign unleashed its first statement. Spokesman Ben Porritt said that Biden had "denounced Barack Obama's poor foreign policy judgment and has strongly argued in his own words what Americans are quickly realizing - that Barack Obama is not ready to be president." As evidence, Republicans cited an ABC interview from August 2007, in which Biden said he would stand by an earlier statement that Obama was not ready to serve as president. Hours later, the McCain campaign released a 30-second TV ad featuring Biden's comments from the interview and scheduled the spot for key states. "

8/23/2008 3:12:55 PM

so basically, obama got a guy who seems a lot like mccain to get the blue collar voters

fuck this publicity shit he's pulling, i want someone in office who will be good for the country, not someone who's only concerned with winning the popularity contest

8/23/2008 3:15:53 PM

it's an election

that's the point

8/23/2008 3:18:57 PM

Should have learned that in high school, elections are popularity contests.

8/23/2008 3:22:32 PM

I like how McCain has that cocky smirk on his face at the end of the ad like "we got em now boys."

8/23/2008 3:57:43 PM

Yeah, I know its been a popularity contest, but that seems to be all that Obama is running on.

8/23/2008 3:59:48 PM

Obama-Biden is pretty close to Osama Bin laden

8/23/2008 4:26:11 PM

i've been calling them Jobama

8/23/2008 4:26:54 PM

^whose bama?

Obama looks like Osama so it's fitting he picked someone whose last name is similar to Bin Laden

8/25/2008 2:01:28 PM

This one time, Biden and his buddy Mike Castle knocked on my door and asked if my parents were home: I was home alone so they left and continued down my street bugging my neighbors. Delaware is a SMALL state.

9/1/2008 11:56:19 PM

did any of you think he would become POTUS with about 10 million more votes than OBAMA?

15 million more votes than Hillary…


Do democrats prefer white men that much?
