Who Is This Biden Character?
Now that Joe Biden is finally getting some attention, a lot of people are thinking, "Who? A senator? For 35 years? Was running for president this year? Never heard of 'em."
Below are two interviews from last August--one video, one audio--during the middle of the Democratic nomination race. I think they provide a great primer on who this guy is.
I followed Biden really closely this year. I don't agree with him on everything, but what I found great about him was his critical mind and his willingness to tell us things we don't want to hear (especially regarding Iraq and health care). Because of this, he was the only candidate I contributed money to.
BUT...these are critical interviews that ask pointed questions ...
