Media figures get reprimanded, suspended, or even fired when caught plagiarizing the work of others. But politicians who get caught sometimes get promotions. A case in point is former Senator and failed presidential candidate Joe Biden, now the nations vice-president and one heartbeat away from the Oval Office.
Known for making humorous and outrageous gaffes and statements, Bidens history of plagiarism goes back to the time when he ran for president in 1988. Biden had delivered, without attribution, passages from a speech by British Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock.
Political scientist Larry Sabato has noted that this led to revelations about a serious plagiarism incident involving Biden during his law school years, reports of exaggerations of his academic record, and the discovery that he had stolen quotations from other politicians, including Bobby Kennedy, in other speeches.

And who is the hero to the MSM? Joe Biden, the plagerist, liar, and overall incompetent who is incapable of speaking a coherent sentence unless he reads something written by someone else.
This is what America has been reduced to.
Of course they will but it won’t mean anything. Plugs has a better chance of beating Ryan in an arm wrestling match (which is zero) than beating him Thursday night. Please let them try. That will push their already low credibility to below sea level.
Good thing is not many people care about the VP debate or who wins. I mean it's not like Ryan is some crazy or polarizing character. If he loses the debate, per the media, then meh. It's not going to hurt.
Same with the town hall meeting “debate” which is nothing but a bunch of liberals whining about what program is needed for their own special interest.
Obama is definitely gonna look better in that scenario considering it always looks and sounds better when someone is promising to help you vs someone who thinks government needs to back off a little.
“And who is the hero to the MSM? Joe Biden, the plagerist, liar, and overall incompetent “
Neil Kinnock hates him too!
“Ask not what you can do for your country......” plagiarized by JFK.
