Indeed it is the same with the Vice President the media and many of the Democrats paint him as this evil dark figure when IMHO all he has ever wanted to do is serve his country to the best of his ability. These people do not understand men who want to serve they are always looking for ulterior motives and if they cannot find them they invent them.
