Why I think it won't be Biden. (This is based on Media Speculation not really my own)
Ok. this for those that are so worried about "what the right is going to say". I don't buy any of it as I don't think we should run this party based on what the guys who want us to lose are going to say.

Now here's the big BUT!!!!!

1) Biden has stated in his presidential run that the job of president requires "experience" and you can't learn "on the job". The Republicans are already running on the ideas expressed here and attacking Obama on it.

2) Biden stated in 04 that McCain should be Kerry's running mate. When asked if he had a second choice Biden responded "absolutely NO!!!".

I just caught some of this on CNN. I don't watch the news and broke my vow to avoid that shit at all costs.

I have other reasons why I think it won't be him and it will be someone else. Mostly because I don't think the presidential runs of the two were harmonius. Obama has sworn not to take money from corporation and the other candidates did. Obama takes a candidate that's received corporate money that will absolutely devastate his campaign and contradict his message.

So that scratches Clinton, Bayh, Biden and a lot of others.

He also said he wants someone that can stay out of the news and offer debate. So I suppose that leaves some grey area.
