I don't know. A friend and I were debating this.

Obama reminds me of some clueless imbecile who lucked into all of his accomplishments through affirmative action and a gift at oratory. Jim Jones comes to mind. Heck, he doesn't even know how many states there are and can't pronounce simple words like corpsman. We still don't know what his grades were in college--any sensible reason for that? You can bet he's stupid because if his grades were all that, we would know about it.

Biden, on the other hand, is a gaffe machine. He tells disabled people unable to walk to stand and be recognized. He's made quite a few racist gaffes, but then again so has Obama (remember "acted stupidly"?). Joe seems like he might be a nice fellow to have a beer with, but comes across as pretty clueless when he starts talking about anything of substance. Most unbiased people who listen to Biden try to talk substantively about most issues think he's whacko.

What do you think?

They are both equally stupid. Obama just hides it better with his teleprompter usage.

Who is he really hiding it from though? We all know the teleprompter is there and when it messes up he gets really mad and flustered.

On the other hand, at least Biden isn't trying to act like someone he isn't. I think he knows he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer so he plays it.

They make a good team, and deserve each other.

Not necessarily. Maybe he just failed Economics. That would have probably killed his chances for being President in 2008 considering the economy at the time.

Remember Bush/Kerry Yale transcripts? Everybody thought Kerry was such a brainiac compared to Bush but in 4 years Bush had only 1 D and that was freshman year in Astronomy. Kerry on the other hand had 5 D's but two D's were in History and one was in Political Science. Kerry's grades weren't released until after the election. Bush had a 77 average and Kerry a 76 so I'm thinking Kerry was embarrassed by the subjects of 3 of his D grades (Political Science, History) because Bush's transcript had already been released so Kerry knew their average grades were similar.

The other thing that might be embarrassing on them is if he had a lot of Incompletes.

Your statement (in bold above) is immature and without merit. So, the only way a Black person can achieve success is through affirmative action? Ivy Leagues are just handing out prestigious degrees to Blacks? If so, perhaps I should give them a call....I haven't yet received my proper dues.

They both lack good judgment, common sense and wisdom...that makes them dangerous, puts our nation's wellbeing at peril.
