Joe Biden was a colossus compared to Sarah Palin




Who said Sarah Palin did better than Biden ? No body did in fact, every one was watching Sarah Palin. She did not come any where close to Joe Biden. Joe Biden is a colossus compared to school girlish Palin.

Sarah Palin did not say much on her own, much of what she said seemed to have been prepared. She was playing to win the spectators with her sly smiles, winks and coy, shy demeanor . She could not explain many questions on taxes and state accountability with any expertise.

She had no factn enough experience to go on to answer National questions. Alaska being a small place compared to the rest of America, her experience as governor is no more than being a Chairman of a Sports club. It is perhaps the wrong thing to say, but Americans are surely not that short of intelligence to understand that she is a wrong choice, for such position as the Vice President to a 72 year old Presidential candidate. The Vice President should be complementary to the President. She should fill the space that the President is not competent enough to fill.

Joe Biden, was brilliant in the exposition of detailed financial intricacies of Taxes, and what should be retained and what should be left out to save on the budget. His exposition of issues were more technical and therefore perhaps outside the ordinary spectators competence to understand. Therefore, the coy womanly expressions served with her pleasant voice, and engaging smiles may have attracted the viewer. But American Presidential Elections is not just a stage show. Being the Vice President is a serious matter . The Americans are not electing a President for America, but the whole world is looking forward to this election. Therefore, the American people have a responsibility to take a serious view of their choice of a President. The Vice President is only a part of the Presidential responsibility.

Barack Obama, has made a wise selection in the choice of his Vice President. Joe Biden has the personality, ability to explain intricate financial matters to the people, and experience in the Senate being Chairman of several committees.

Joe Biden is undoubtedly the more competent Vice President, and with Barack Obamas two of them will be the best combination for the American Presidential election.
