Okay, don't like him, not sure, still mulling it over? Just watch this speech and then make your judgment. It is really worth watching.

1. It's valuable for all to watch regardless of their candidate - it states

what the next President will be up against when s/he takes office. We will need to remember when that time rolls around, of the reality of the situation. I highly recommend this to EVERYONE.

2. Impressive!

[PatSeg]

7. It is better than listening to 30 second answers in a debate

He really has a lot to say and it is often jaw-dropping honest and right.

[PatSeg]

8. This is a serious election

and we need to go beyond the political soundbites and really study the issues. Biden is a wealth of information for those who really want to understand where we are as a country and where we are headed.

3. very impressive indeed, I would like to see him as Secretary of State.

[PatSeg]

6. So would Chris Matthews!

I'm still inclined to see him as President though.

4. I am still undecided but leaning Biden - I think his Iraq plan is the soundest.

[PatSeg]

5. It is the soundest

and he is so knowledgeable on so many other topics as well. When I listen to his speeches I feel like I'm getting an education, not just a sales pitch. He is the kind of person I'd love to have a one-on-one conversation with.

9. I just watched it again. He's the only one I've heard address the fact that

we've lost support from around the world. "Nobody wants to engage with us. Nobody." He realizes that's a hurdle the next President will have to face. Don't any of the other candidates realize that - or have I just not heard them mention it?

[PatSeg]

10. I'm not sure

They may have brought it up but not the way Biden does repeatedly. It is an important issue as any resolution to Iraq will require the help of other countries in the Mideast and around the world. Bush just can't do that. Even if he tried at this point, no one trusts him. They are probably waiting it out until we have a different person in the White House.
