BIDEN WITHDRAWS BID FOR PRESIDENT IN WAKE OF FUROR
SEPT. 24, 1987
Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., declaring that his candidacy had been overwhelmed by ‘’the exaggerated shadow’’ of his mistakes, dropped out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination today.
The 44-year-old legislator from Delaware betrayed little bitterness but some sadness as he stood behind a forest of microphones at a crowded news conference. In sharp contrast with former Senator Gary Hart, who withdrew from the Democratic contest in a blur of invective against the news media, Mr. Biden chose to swallow most of his private anger and place the burden for the end of his candidacy on himself.
‘’I made some mistakes,’’ said Mr. Biden, who has faced 10 days of news reports on his lifting of sections from the speeches of others and on his record in college and law school.

That was a long time ago. Nobody cares about it now, because he is a Democrat.
!!!!
My eyes were about to fall out of my head,
until I noticed the date of 1988.
Hopefully, history will be repeating itself
in the next few weeks.
Go home, Joe. Your wife will have to accept that she will never become the erstwhile ‘Queen of North America’ (& Puerto Rico too).
In his previous presidential campaigns, Biden made it to September in 1987. He made it to January 2008.
But this time he has Team Hillary gunning for him form day one.
So what changed between then and now? Those things never happened so therefore don’t matter? Who’s going to ask him about it? HA! No one, that’s who!
Sad trombone waaah-waaaauuuu
This was so long ago and not clear cut as the guy in England and him were interacting, some of the same people working on both campaigns. He is former VP and starts there.
That’s a long time ago, I already addressed it
Worked for Hitlery
He’s fixed now.
Other allegations of past law school plagiarism and exaggerating his academic record soon followed. Biden withdrew from the race later that month.

As a part of the Kinnock controversy, it was revealed that Biden had been involved in a similar incident during his first year at Syracuse University School of Law in 1965. Biden initially received an “F” in an introductory class on legal methodology for writing a paper relying almost exclusively on a single Fordham Law Review article, which he had cited only once.
As revealed by a video shown on C-SPAN,[31][32] when questioned by a New Hampshire resident about his grades in law school, Biden had replied “I think I probably have a much higher IQ than you do, I suspect,”[33] and then inaccurately recollected graduating in the “top half” of his class when he actually graduated 76th from 85, that he had attended law school on a full scholarship, and had received three degrees in college.[34] In fact, he had earned a single B.A. with a double major in history and political science, and had received a half scholarship to law school based on financial need with some additional assistance based in part upon academics.[34] During this time, Biden also released his undergraduate grades, which were unexceptional.

What a Motley Crew.
Maybe touchy Joe Biden can go crazy on the campaign trail.
Bernie has already lost his mind. The other Dem. candidates are missing the special something necessary to win.
Some people call him plugs Biden
Some call him the plagerizer in gov.
Some call him Uncle Joe
Cuz he feels all that he loves
People call him crazy
Say you got him wrong, got him wrong
But don’t you worry baby don’t you worry
Cuz he’ll hug underage kids all day long
Cuz he’s a hugger and a feeler
And a squeezer and a sleazier
Hug your daughter all day long
He’s is older, but not a smoker
Just a molesting grouper
He’ll hug your kids all day long!
Who’s going to ask him about it? HA! No one, that’s who!
