Looks like 1987 when he was running for the 1988 presidential campaign.
A few days later, Biden's plagiarism incident in law school came to public light.[29] Video was also released showing that when earlier questioned by a New Hampshire resident about his grades in law school, he had said he graduated in the "top half" of his class, that he had attended law school on a full scholarship, and that he had received three degrees in college,[28][98] each of which was untrue or an exaggeration.[28] Advisers and reporters pointed out that he falsely claimed to have marched in the civil rights movement.
he withdrew from the race on September 23, 1987, saying his candidacy had been overrun by "the exaggerated shadow" of his past mistakesThis message has been edited. Last edited by: sdy,

"Exaggerated shadow". That's, that's poetry right there.

This gent always makes astute observations.
He points out that the Biden Campaign problems are not to Biden only; the campaign staff appear incompetent, both strategically and technologically. I think he's correct. I don't agree with everything this guy says, and likely, neither will you, but he's onto something and this is worth a watch.
Aside from Biden, listen to his remark in the first minute or so about The Wayback Machine beginning to censor its own archives. "The internet is forever" is turning out to not be true necessarily.

My curiosity is overwhelming me - who are the nine poor sumbitches who ranked BELOW Biden? Maybe the shame of it all caused them to become hermits...

He would have had to attended before he could be ranked, and I don't see any evidence whatsoever that the Krimson Kenyan ever set foot on the campus of an institution of higher learning.
Unless it was because he was selling weed to the students.

As I remember, Obama's had his college records (and other personal records) sealed. I have wondered what damaging information he was (is) hiding. I also wonder why the liberals I know feel it is a non issue.
(Sidenote. I read somewhere Obama is likely the richest ex-POTUS. I wonder how much commission he earned on corrupt deals).

Under what authority? The President is the chief executive of the US government, not a dictator or king. Records like that are the private property of the individual and the institutions involved, not public US property. It was ridiculous—not to say outrageous—that Obama was permitted by the BS media and electorate to get away with not revealing such important information about his claimed background and qualifications, but that does not give an elected official the right to do it himself. Would we have wanted Obama to have such power when he was in office?

zippy the wonder putz was also head of the harvard law review except no one can find his name on anything published by the paper.
My first thought on hearing from the crimson kenyan was just shut up. But there's probably no better way to motivate Trumps base than to have the waffling chicken stuttering and reminding everyone his 8 years of suffering.
Biden: who was the Democrat vice presidential nominee, claimed he had journeyed to the city for a football game between his alma mater, the University of Delaware, and the local, Athens-based Ohio University sometime in 1963.
“Now I made a little mistake here that day, I made a little mistake,” Biden told the crowd at the time. Adding, according to reporters in attendance, with a wink that after the game he wandered around and “met this lovely group of Ohio University…students.”
Biden proceeded to explain that he attempted to convince two young women he met on the campus to join him and some friends at a local establishment.
“And uh, without knowing it, I shouldn’t admit this on national television because it’ll reveal that I’m over 60, but I thought that we were gonna go get something to eat,” he said. When the “two young women” claimed they would “be right back,” he offered to escort them to their dormitory, where trouble quickly ensued with campus security.
“I said well I’ll come with you, and they said okay, and I walked into their dormitory and was immediately accosted by a cop who arrested me because back in those days men were not allowed in women’s dormitories,” Biden said. “But I promise you I never breached the first floor and it was only a temporary detention.”
“But that’s what I most remember about Athens,” he added. “So folks look, it’s good to be back here.”

"Painful to watch" says Jimmy Dore. No, you enjoyed this just like I did, Jim Boy.
Check out Lawrence "Jackwagon" O'Donnell trying to play matchmaker. Pathetic.
"I can't believe MSNBC over-hyped something" says Jimmy.
The BALLS on this no-talent chick! Vice President?? Bitch, please.
I know of at least one political commentator who thinks that the Biden campaign did this to take this arrogant fool down a coupe of notches. Apparently, she's being hyped by the media as Biden's VP pick and she's really selling it herself. The Biden campaign sees this and decided to take the wind out of her sails. If that's true, well, then they finally did something right, because in that clip you can see her deflate like a damaged Garfield balloon at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade..

Here are youtube videos, half a dozen, just the audio of phone conversations, of Joe Biden (and John Kerry) and Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko speaking in regards to Joe's quid pro quo (Prosecutor General Shokin and a billion dollars)
Wonder if you tube will take these down eventually.

Biden has pushed the self-destruct button again (if this is true):
quote:
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer revealed Tuesday that she has had an “opening conversation” with Joe Biden’s campaign about potentially being his running mate as vice president.
“I’ve had a conversation with some folks,” Whitmer told NBC’s “3rd Hour of Today.” "But the fact of the matter is all of my energy is going into helping my state.
Yeah, I don't think that's going to help Whitmer, either. Maybe Joe's trying to revive the whole "America's ex-wife" thing that took Hillary so far?

Why do you say that? I don't like Whitmer's style or what she's done to the State, but she's very articulate and she comes-across in presence as very likable. I don't know whether it's her speaking style or what it is, but I have to constantly remind myself of what she's done since being elected whenever I see her speak.
