Great list

I kept the list in my documents.  At a time when hairdos and SNL skits are what rates, I'm glad to see an article with information.  

Now if we can only get the presidential candidates to debate Friday, we will have more time to figure out what Biden and Palin need to discuss.

THANKS.

This list testifies to one thing on a deeper level: Biden has been committed to SERVING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE for a long time, in the international context above all. I posted this story on a British Columbia website called NOWPUBLIC, an excellent site, but not as powerful nor nearly as much a forum as OEN,  and one chap wrote in that he wanted to see the VP Debates because he thought Biden was a "pompous ass." I watched several speeches of him to the DNC to labor unions and to university crowds, all on You tube, and he didn't seem the least bit Pompous to me. I want to see Bill Richardson as the next Sec. of State, and I think this list, which I just got this morning, proves that we could turn the entire international disarray around, the one created over the past 8 years, but it will take the next 4 years to do it. Any readers have a person they think better than NM Governor Richardson for SOS? Let's hear your nomination.

And if you mean the hypothetical discussion between Palin and Karzai is a Saturday Night Live skit, please realize that as a journalist and as a keen observer of international matters, I am profoundly disturbed and offended that the reporters from CNN and NY Times and Washington Post had exactly 26 seconds to listen to them chirping about Karzai's new son, take the photos, and then get kicked out.

What are they afraid of in availing Sarah Palin to national and international media? We got over Dan Quayle not knowing how to spell. Maybe it is much worse, the level of her incompetence? Why keep reporters away from her at all? Is this really Democracy at work?

Hoperfully he won't miss the step and Obama falls

 The best place to prove the ascent from Senatorial to "presidential" is before the United States Senate. Clearly no talk of the current economic 'crisis" can be passed without the approval of Mssrs. Obama, McCain and Biden. Politically, it shuts out Gov. Palin from relevancy and promotes what has not been in American history since John kennedy won the Presidency--a sitting member of the Senate wins the Presidency and another sitting member becomes vice President.
