Wow good pick, he is one of the few Dems I actually liked. And that is saying a lot because I usually don't find many Democrats I like.

 

[Flex]

I don't care who the Democrats choose because I want John McCain to win. MAC IS BACK!! MAC IS BACK!!!

Biden was pretty fun to listen to during the debates.

bad choice...

why?

 

[samsam]

Didn't Barack previously state that he wants a Running Mate that continously offers him constructive critism?
Just curious as to why he'd choose Biden as his RM. Maybe someone care to clarify?
Couldn't find answer elsewhere.

On another note: The latter 2 advertisements did not really make me want to vote for MC Cainburger.

I didn't care who he chose since I'm not voting for him, but I think Biden is pretty interesting to listen to. I do know that Biden is a strong proponent of the war on drugs, so naturally he is a douchebag in my book.

extremely racist too..?

Meh, he's made what I call jokes. How many members here, myself includes, have made countless jokes against black people, women, mexicans, and so on? Pretty much anyone with over 200 posts. It's not just what is said, but even moreso the way things are said, which matters. Like the much publicized Ron Paul newsletters (which I know he didn't write, because i know who did), but those kinds of things weren't acceptable, talking about 711's and shit is in good fun. If Obama were to say that to a group of black people, they'd laugh.

He was picked mostly for his years of experience (not saying this is a good thing, just that somehow people have a hard on for this, despite the fact that many experienced people like McCain, Cheney and others are fucking disastrous at foreign policy). Biden is chair of the senate Foreign Relations Committee, again not saying experience = good policies.

Regardles, except for someone like Cheney, and George Bush the 1st, the vice president typically does very little. Obama will still make an awful president. As will McCain, it's lose lose with either vote.

How so?

 

[Ironslave]

How so?

He's a flaming liberal who stands for pretty much nothing, he'll increase the size of government and it's spending like nobody else. He's just so much of a socialist towards everything, health care, education, etc.. it's pretty much communism.

^ Ok now tell me why McCain would be a shitty president.
