Obama Picks Biden

Posted by Holly on Aug 23, 2008 under Political

It was announced very early this morning apparently. I don’t have a cell phone so I couldn’t sign up for anything. Yes I know it’s crazy I don’t have one, but I’m still paying off the $900 bill a friend racked up for me. This is why this post is not being written at 3 am.

Anyway I have to say I’m not sure about this pick, mostly because I really don’t know much about this person and their views. I agree more with Obama’s views then McCain’s so he still gets my vote as of now, but I know I need to learn more about the next guy. Why? The job is not that important right? Wrong, people forget that the VP is next in line and should be someone you like just as much as the guy actually running for president. Also I think the job of the VP may one day start to mean something more and we better have a good guy in office when it does.

From what I have read about him it seems like he has all of the things that Obama lacks, but enough similarities to make the ticket work. He has foreign policy experience as well has having been in the national political scene for a while now. He’s even run for president himself. I think another good thing about him is that he has stated that he thinks Obama is not ready for president, this is a good thing because he will help him, he will be there to support him more then someone who just thinks they are there for the ride.
