There is no candidate out there to me that walks the walk and talks the talk like Joe Biden. By far, I find him the only one with enough intelligence, strength, and depth of experience to carry us in to the next eight years. I just hope the American people get a chance to see him on stage next to all the other candidates, so they can finally see that there should only be one person, come 2008, who should be sitting in the oval office calling the shots. And that's Senator Joseph Biden. God be with you Joe. We need you! I beg anyone out there to stop and listen very carefully to Senator Biden. This is probably the most important Presidential election we've EVER had. America is in the midst of the worst turmoil in it's history. We need a good strong leader with experience. And foreign policy experience at that. Joe's the real deal. Please help him get there.
God Bless everyone.

Welcome to POL, kad7777! :sunny:

Please expound more on Joe Biden ... his legislation, his positions, his votes, etc. that have made you feel so strongly about him.

Thanks!

A long time ago I thought that Michael Dukakis was a great canditate, and he went on to get crushed, mainly because he ran a horrid campaign, made every mistake possible, and looked like a total fool. (essentially I think the same thing happened with Al Gore and John Kerry)
I may be a bit underambitious for some, but to me the most important quality of a Democratic canditate is that he can beat the Republican candidate. In the past I have been unable to judge these things. Who would have belived that a goofy two term governor, from Arkansas no less, could beat Veterans like George Bush Senior and Bob Dole???
I guess I prefer Obama to Biden. Obama is really fresh and new. He could shake up the world. Biden just reminds me of an old plagerism scandal (he was lifting whole sections of speeches from an Englishman who LOST and LOST and LOST elections. if you're gonna steal speeches steal from a winner at least).

For those of you that are interested. Go to www.joebiden.com
and watch these videos:

1) "Off a Cliff" speech.
2) Nevada Forum

Then, go to the YouTube link and I highly recommend watching the Firefighter speech.

Best,

In congressional hearings
I've seen Joe kick butt,
and I've seen Joe lick butt
the latter, a few times too often for my taste :p
