Senator Joe Biden has confirmed what we all knew: Senator Obama's youth and inexperience are dangerous for America
"Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."
Which might be OK, if Biden thought Obama was up to the job and would make the right choices. But Obama's Foreign Policy Expert isn't so sure about that.
"And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."
During the debate at Hofstra University Obama praised Biden's Foreign Policy expertise
...he has some of the best foreign policy credentials of anybody. And Democrats and Republicans alike, I think, acknowledge his expertise there.
So Joe should know.
UPDATE: Senator Biden has taken the day off and former secretary of State Madeline Albright has stepped in to say "... it’s just a statement of fact, frankly...." so I guess the consensus is, Obama is dangerous on the Foreign Policy front. Meanwhile, Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty asks: Why tempt our enemies?
