Yes, the President told the New Yorker that – and I agree. Writes the Washington Times;
President Obama said he couldn’t really understand why Vice President Joseph R. Biden — or former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, for that matter — would want to undertake the “undignifying process” of running for president in 2016.
But if Mr. Biden did, he would be great, Mr. Obama said, seeming to give his stamp of approval to his vice president, over his former Secretary of State, in The New Yorker.
“I think that, for both Joe and for Hillary, they’ve already accomplished an awful lot in this lives. The question is, do they, at this phase in their lives, want to go through the pretty undignifying process of running all over again,” he said, Politico reported, citing the magazine interview.
The President cites Biden loyalty as his main qualification to be President. That’s what we need, a lap dog in the White House. It would be Pat Paulsen‘s presidency.
But, I would cross the aisle to vote for Biden, or Elizabeth Warren, or Marty O’Malley. So Democrats, work on those candidates. I might even vote for Hillary in 2016 – all of my Republican friends say the same thing. Hell, we’d probably vote for Michelle Obama.

Biden would be a superb president. Yep, and the AMC Gremlin was a fine automobile. And Stroh’s made a tasty beer. And mullets were an attractive hair style. And rabid raccoons make good pets. And……
Now, in fairness, MGySgtRet. – Stroh’s was indeed tasty.
The taste wasn’t particularly good. But it was tasty. (smile)
And Bernath is an Honorary CPO….
Ooops – think I crossed the line there didn’t I?
I was thinking the Chevy Citation was SUCH a good car, with all those recalls for defects. 🙂
…And maybe I’m a Chinese jet pilot.
And the Twilight movies!!! AWESOME!!!
I wouldn’t trust Biden to change my tire, much less run the country.
I don’t think I’d trust the current VP to dispose of a dirty diaper properly, much less change a tire. But that’s just me.
Hondo…Roger That!
He would lose the tire and your lug nuts and then lie about where they went.
But he’d have multiple footnotes in the false report he wrote relating to the incident. And some of it would be lifted from an incident in England.
He would also include a ridiculous justification for why you should actually pay him more money for losing your stuff.
He’d put on the wrong size tire from another car, only use one loosely tightened lug nut, curse at you when you point out the flaws, and blame you when the wheel fell off.
Warning NSFW

You guys got it all wrong here. He wouldn’t even be able to find the jack, much less know how to operate it.
He’d take a cab to the nearest 7-11 and get the Indian guy to go change the tire. And screw up the nav system in your car.
Jonn, someone spike your rum and cigars there lately?
Yer sarcasm detector malfunctioning today, NHSparky? (smile)
I’m pretty sure the last paragraph was sarcastim -or- John is on vacation in Colorado/Washington State.
You don’t remember the Democrats telling us for eight years that they would have voted for John McCain until McCain was actually the candidate and then they didn’t?
Well, we could always bring back Hardin or — oh, which one was it that spent an hour and a half speechifyin’ without a coat or hat in a wet and cold January, and then died of pneumonia from it? Was that Tyler?
But seriously, folks, these people make the GOP look attractive, don’t they?
These people make Margaret Thatcher look attractive – and for all of the wrong reasons…ick.
Well she’s no Helen Thomas.

That needed a Not Safe for Viewing anywhere alert… I just threw up a little, and my balls shrunk.
Dear God in Heaven. Scrolling upon that picture is enough to scare the crap out of even a Marine!
Well played, sir!
Delilah – you’re thinking of William H. Harrison.
Or maybe Chernenko – since Harrison was inaugurated in March. (smile)
In point of fact, Harrison’s cold (which later developed into pneumonia and killed him) didn’t begin until about 3 weeks after he assumed office on 4 Mar 1841 (inauguration day was moved to Jan during FDR’s presidency). Harrison became sick on 26 Mar 1841; he rapidly worstened, dying of a combination of pneumonia, jaundice, and septicemia on 4 Apr 1841.
That was interesting to learn, Hondo. I did not know that until I went to Wikipedia to check my memory before I commented. I’d always thought that he’d gotten sick at the inauguration – probably what I was taught as a kid.
MrBill: I had to do the same – for much the same reason. I couldn’t remember whether the man had gotten sick immediately or not, but I also think I was taught – incorrectly – that he did.
I think I’ve read elsewhere that he originally got ill after eating some spoiled/tainted cherries. Not sure about that, so I’ll see if I can find that reference.
Well, scratch the tainted cherries theory. That was Zachary Taylor.
That was Taylor? I thought he was shot by a disappointed office-seeker! 😉
Nope. That was Garfield. (Saw that looking up the “cherries” info. [smile])
Garfield? I thought he was shot by Squeaky Fromme! 😉
No, but he better watch out to make sure Odie doesn’t put something nasty in his lasagna. (smile)
No, Squeaky Fromme took a potshot at Gerald Ford, and missed.
Yup, jus’ havin’ a little fun!
Biden and Hillary would be an awesome as sheep castraters. Hillary may enjoy it too much though.

I don’t that she would be employable in that profession — “inaccuracy” caused by fantasizing about opportunities missed in her younger years.
Like an OER/NCOER stating “promote when ready”…the kiss of death. Bite Me has been in the game long enough to recognize empty rhetoric and faint praise…he also knows Bam really can’t stand him. Yep, check your back Uncle Joey you’ve been shanked. Classic fluff from the empty chair…

Wow, just another embarrassing episode starring Barrycade Obama, pResident and commentator.
And, the blonde is the same one who starred in the selfie from the Mandela memorial service. I wonder, was she “punching above her weight” again?
We probably don’t agree upon the definition of “superb.”
I wish this site would just stick to Stolen Valor…
I wish you would start your own blog and quitcher bitchin’ about mine.
Splash. Out.

Who said this blog was just about stolen valor? It’s a MilBlog. It’s about whatever the hell the authors want to post. One story could be stolen valor, another could be an ammo shortage, a third could be the winner of the national wet t-shirt contest. If you don’t like it, nobody is forcing you to read it.
National Wet T-shirt contest???
I demand pictures!!!
OK, name one accomplishment of these two. Just one between the two of them! I am hard pressed to think of a single thing either accomplished in the senate and both have been jokes in their last jobs. Hillary wants the job too much and Joe is too dumb to trust with it. So sure, both would be perfect to ride what used to be the USA into the ground.
well, Uncle Joe likes to brag that he wrote the Clinton assault weapon ban.
But, I would cross the aisle to vote for Biden, or Elizabeth Warren, or Marty O’Malley. So Democrats, work on those candidates. I might even vote for Hillary in 2016 – all of my Republican friends say the same thing. Hell, we’d probably vote for Michelle Obama.
The last time I cheered the Democrats’ choice of an “unelectable” candidate…he won two terms.
Plugs Biden would make a superb president like I would make a superb Apollo astronaut- in other words not remotely possible.
