Even if you have not been paying attention before, now it is important to know what this candidate for vice-president has to say.

* Our debt to our parents and our grandparents is too great. Our obligation to our children is too sacred. These are extraordinary times; this is an extraordinary election.

* Often times, we overlook the physical, emotional, and financial sacrifice that every member of the military makes when they leave the United States to fight on foreign soil. Our soldiers put their lives on the line for our families; an affordable education is not too much to ask in return. It is time to recognize the bravery and sacrifices of this generation of veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. We owe them nothing less than the educational benefits offered the Greatest Generation after World War II.

* Thank you to the veterans service organizations who provide support to the families of our fallen as well as our wounded who have returned.

* What’s John’s plan for dealing with these dangers? You either talk; you go to war; or you maintain the unacceptable status quo. If John has ruled out talking, that means we’re going to get more of what we’ve had for most of the Bush administration – or worse.

* Thank you to all who have laid down their lives in defense of our country. Thank you for making the ultimate sacrifice and for your willingness to do so, so that our country can remain free and strong and a beacon of liberty in this world.

– Joe Biden
