Draft Biden group ramps up outreach
The Hill ^ | July 24, 2015 | Jonathan Easley

The super-PAC organized to encourage Vice President Biden to run for president released its first ad on Friday ahead of a “national day of action” to gather signatures for the push.

“Some people ask why Joe Biden,” a young man in the ad says. “I turn back and ask them why not Joe Biden? He’s been on of the most influential vice presidents that this country has seen. He’s right now a part of one of the most successful administrations in recent history, and he’s a big reason for that success.”

Supporters in the ad praise Biden for being on the forefront of the gay rights movement, for working to stop violence on college campuses and for generally appealing to “the younger generation’s beliefs.”

“In 2016 I’m ridin’ with Biden,” the supporters say.

Draft Biden said it wasn’t putting any money behind the ad, but was sending it to supporters and relying on grassroots support to promote it. The group is operated by William Pierce, who reportedly volunteered for Biden's 2008 presidential campaign.

Hillary Clinton remains the front-runner in the race for the Democratic nomination, but recent polling shows Biden would have an impact on the contest if he were to run.

But the Obama Administrations has been one of the most corrupt arrogant inefficient, incapable and useless administrations ever.

By its own standards, the Obama administration has been exceedingly successful. Obama set out to "transform America" and he has succeeded -- there are no jobs, there are no borders, there is no national security, there are no moral standards.

My first thought with the “i’m ridin’ with Biden” was Jeremiah Wright, “they was ridin’ dirty” comment.
