The Associated Press has confirmed from undisclosed sources that Joe Biden will be Obamas VP for POTUS. Other media outlets such as CNN have followed
and confirmed Biden as VP from undisclosed Democrat sources. The Obama camp is yet to confirm any of this however, Obama will only make his official
VP announcement tomorrow. I hope Joe Biden becomes VP if not Kathleen Sebelius.

Joseph R. Biden Jr is a 65 year old senator representing Delaware. He joined the senate in 1973 at the age of 30 (one of the youngest in US history)
making him the longest serving senator for the state of Delaware and ran for the president in 1988. He nearly ran again in 2004 but decided to rather
campaign for the second time this year. In 2008 Biden dropped out after he lost in the Iowa caucuses after having come 5th and gained mere 0.9% of the
vote.
Joe Biden is considered strong on foreign policy and has vast experience in the senate having being a senator for 30years. He is a currently chairman
of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and a long-time member of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary. Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell stated
that Biden would be the best choice for Obama refering again to Bidens foreign policy experience and political roots.
There are many skeptics of the confirmation as to whether Biden will be announced as VP tomorrow, some cite that Virginia Gov. Timothy Kaine may very
well be VP instead, he may be core to Obama taking Virginia come November. Who ever it is it will be official tomorrow (or later on today) when Obama
announces his vp.
