In reply to the discussion: Joe Biden Worried That Hillary Clinton Isn't Credible On Income Inequality [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)the Nov. 2016 election.
He has not spoken out strongly or done anything on the issue of income disparity in that time.
When Walker was destroying the unions in Wisconsin and when Occupy Wall Street was occupying public spaces, Biden said nothing or next to nothing.
He is no more credible on these issues than Hillary.
And they are major issues for 2016.
The only credible candidate on these issues Is Bernie. O'Malley is not too bad, but not to be trusted when compared to Bernie.
Warren is trustworthy on the issues, but she is apparently not running for president, and it would be a waste of her time to run for VP. She should either be president or stay in the Senate where she can change policy. As VP she would just be a visual and not a real presence.
Biden is a member of the oligarchy's machine. He shouldn't waste his energy running for president. This is not the year of the oligarchs, not the year of the banks and the creditcard companies, and therefore not Biden's year.
