If Biden was so experienced, Why aren't the Democrats nominating him for President?

Question

After all, theres tape of Biden dissing Obama: calling him inexperienced and that he wouldn't accept the VP spot.

What say you?

Sent me a comment if you wish to opine, and No Bloviating...'cause thats my job!

Answer 1

If experience was what the electorate wanted, why isn't McCain blowing the poll numbers out of the water?

The electorate spoke during the primaries.

Answer 2

Biden is a deluded old goat and a turbo charged gaff machine.  Even the Democrats know it would be the kiss of death to nominate him.

Obama is a kid and kids will vote for him because kids have a habit of doing exactly what they know they shouldn't do.

They all think they can fake out their parents by putting Biden in there to appease them.

Answer 3

Because he didn't run for President.  

What sort of dumb question was that?  I think you were trying to be clever... or something....

Answer 4

Unfortunaly bloviating is what politicans excel in, and tapes of Bush dissing McCain are around too, in fact those of us old enough to remember the last time the two met on the campaign trail laughed at the sight of a Bush/McCain hug in the Rose Garden.  Those two have been at odds for quite a while.  But then McCain wasn't always fond of the Fundies as he has been while courting the nomination, which is why they don't quite trust him.

I don't think the tales of the tapes will have any influence on primary trails to come,  they will always be saying negative things about their opponents, to pretend otherwise is just silly.

There are many experienced men and women available for nomination, no party can have everyone who qualifys run.

I can't think of anything that changes more than what a politician will accept in the way of an office, except maybe the weather in Maine.

Answer 5

His policies are just like Pelosi's policies.  And, Americans don't want that.  

Answer 6

Short answer:  they aren't nominating Biden for president because he dropped out very early in the race.

Longer answer:  of course he dissed Obama, they were running against each other in the primaries...party-mates don't highlight the strengths of the competition during the primaries, they highlight the weaknesses.  Every party has done that since the dawn of time.  I don't think that anyone will care too much at the end of the day...the people talking about it most are people who wouldn't vote for Obama anyway.

Answer 7

Wasn't he one of the first to drop out for lack of interest by the voters during the primaries?  

Answer 8

If McCain is so great, why wasn't he elected 8 years ago?

Answer 9

Without his hair piece he is the clone of d**k cheney.

Answer 10

I just wonder why the hypocrites arent calling him a racist like they do everyone else that called Obama " inexperienced"

Oh wait, because he really is a racist. Just like Obama.

" the electorate spoke during the primaries"

You mean the ones where Hillary recieved the most votes?

" Because he didnt run for President"

You must be one of  those " more educated Obama supporters"

Answer 11

Because he lost in the Primaries.  Something Clinton supporters haven't yet come to terms with.  Biden knows that Obama's judgment more than makes up for not having a lot of national experience.

Answer 12

Because Obama is better. Biden will be a good VP

Answer 13

Biden did not connect with the generation X and younger voters, who are Democrats by a greater percentage than the boomers and older generation.

Answer 14

Why aren't possible McCain running mates like Romney or Huckabee or Pawlenty, etc. the nominee of his party?  Your question really doesn't make a great deal of sense.  Biden didn't attract a great deal of support during his Presidential campaign for reasons that were mostly out of his control.  However, most thought he conducted a good campaign.  His being denied the nomination for President doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve to be on the ticket.  Obviously, Biden has a great deal of experience and credentials and will make a good Vice-President and would be a trusted advisor to Obama if elected.

Answer 15

Because it's all about me. Not Biden, not this country, and definitely not my ugly wife.
