Obama should choose Biden

Sen. Joe Biden should be Sen. Barack Obama's running mate in his bid for the White House for several reasons. Biden has served in the Senate for 35 years and has the extensive and impressive political experience that Obama's campaign is lacking. He is currently chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and has something Obama's campaign desperately needs: He has also served on the Senate Judiciary Committee and has been instrumental in the passing of several landmark bills. An Obama-Biden ticket would be unbeatable.
