Biden’s case against Obama

Posted 21 Aug 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama

Oddly enough, it looks like Joe Biden’s 2007 description of Barack Obama as “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy” might actually land him the VP spot on the 2008 Democrat ticket.

But there have been some other (snort-worthy) quotes from Biden which seem to emphasize why Obama is not ready for the Oval Office.

On Aug 1, 2007, Biden slammed Obama for being a “Johnny-come-lately”.

“We find it a little disingenuous that Sen. Obama is hailing this as a new bold initiative when he has neglected to join his colleagues in the Senate when the opportunities have been there to redirect our forces into Afghanistan” said Biden for President Campaign Manager Luis Navarro. “It’s good to see Sen. Obama has finally arrived at the right position, but this can hardly be considered bold leadership.”

It’s also worth taking a look at this ad from Biden’s failed run at the presidency in 1988, wherein he disparages inexperience and states that the White House is no place to learn on the job.

“The White House isn’t the place to learn how to deal with international crisis, the balance of power, war and peace, and the economic future of the next generation.
