White Privilege

Obama chose Biden knowing that no idiot would harm Obama if
Biden would become president.

Largely his foreign policy experience. Plus Biden was so well-networked on the hill that he was able to help President Obama navigate the democratic majority for the first few years.

Pelosi as Speaker made it double indemnity.

Appeal to Catholics + middle- and lower-income whites, esp. in PA and Ohio.

Yup, that too.

Biden is not Catholic, and he repulses many Catholics, as does Obama.

As is most everything.

Gravitas.

It's really funny when you look at the '08 election.

McCain is tagged a worn out beltway retread. Obama, a lightweight noob.

Then look at who both of them picked for their running mates.

What nobody apparently told Obama was that Biden is a buffoon from WAAAAAAY back.

There should be a new designation CINO meaning "Catholic in name only."

Includes jokes like: Biden, Andrew Cuomo, Pelosi, Kerry, and the Kennedys.

If you wanted to look smart, who would you stand next to?

Obama picked Biden to secure the valuable Delaware vote.

he had to know. That's why I think the poster who mentioned Biden being a safeguard for Obama not getting offed was closer to the truth.

Biden is a CINO and is offensive to those who follow Catholic teachings.
Being Catholic means accepting all of, not just cherry-picking some of, that church's teachings. Otherwise, the person is being a charlatan.
