Senator Biden

Being a Democratic-Republican I find it easy to support Senator Biden to be President. Though, considering he is 60, the hope is he will make it to the 2008 election - and thereof the 8 years after that - he's got my vote.

Putting his old age behind, this man has got a lot of brains and a lot of life still in him. While he may be a left wing nut cracker, he is not as robotic speaking/looking as Hillary Clinton, and is by far better then any Republican I have ever seen. Now maybe that is the problem, I haven't seen any other Republicans on TV spouting off their own views (ie those views developed by the brain).

But being as how I have only seen Senator Biden, speaking the truth, I can only throw my support behind him.

Now to what he says.

• His views on Iraq - the Five Points plan he came up with - is brilliant. His plan, though, has many obstacle, though about 80% of them are political. Now I don't know about you but I would rather the Iraqis dabble in heated political debate then in AK-47 practice, if you know what I mean.

• His expertise on international matters is, well expert. He thinks, yes actually thinks, about how the actions he would take in world matters would effect, well the world, and seeing how a lot of the world seems to hate us (or rather that's what my TV tells me) I think we could use someone like Biden.

• Senator Biden's willingness to UNITE OUR STATES. Like I have submitted before, the argument can be that the "UNITE OUR STATES" campaign is all show, and no tell. However I would counter argue, that if you ever here him speak, you hear his voice.

A voice, a term familiar to any Speech Communication major, is the most important part for any person. A voice does not only make the people listen, but the voice also tells about the person's intentions, their morals & ethics, their will power, and their vision. A voice makes up the entire whole of the person, and this man's voice tells a tale that I myself am willing to accept.

I know it's two years away, but I have lived, if anything, for 18 and change years on this Earth. Every even that I have witnessed, came at a time that I never thought such an event would occur. Events that changed the world, all while I eat my dinner. So I know that two years is a long time, and I have learned it only takes one second for the entire Planet to change, there are a lot of second between now and 2008.

So unless he screws up between now and then, the likeliness of which ties into the above argument about time and what not, he's got my vote.
