Oyez Oyez Iowa! What About Biden?

If you are in Iowa and you are going to a Democratic caucus, I think you ought to consider, and then vote for, Joe Biden. He is the best candidate the Democrats have to offer. He is a good candidate, a candidate who commands respect in both the Democratic and Republican party. He has real experience, long experience, and is head of the powerful Senate foreign Relations Committee. His Senate tenure has lasted through seven Presidencies. In every election he has beat his Republican opponent handily. He is a patriotic American. He understands how government works. He knows the essential importance of a return to bi-partisanship, which served our country well for many long years. His long record isn't based on promises, it's based on experience and willingness to stand up for what he believes.

Solving the problems in Washington can't be done by outsiders, or those who claim to be outsiders but aren't. Barack Obama isn't an outsider, he came up as a solid Democrat member of the Illinois Senate, which has spent years figuring out how to bankrupt this state. His record is tarnished by his Cook County connections and land deals with don't pass muster. And Hillary Clinton? She has a great deal more Senate Experience than Barack Obama, but her major experience is as First Lady. Remember those missing records and a health care initiative that didn't quite pass legal muster? The deals she made while her husband was governor of Arkansas continue to raise questions.

Biden offers strength against Republican contenders, and a vision of American as a good and great country.
