?Biden was originally put on the ticket as a ?foreign policy expert?

I thought he was an insurance policy...who would harm Zero with that Baboon in the bullpen?

And all along I thought it was because of Biden’s gravitas, or so the newsfolk said.

I should clarify that I was referring to the 2008 election. Biden was touted as a foreign policy expert, and that's why the MSM went after Sarah Palin's lack of foreign policy experience so vehemently. They conveniently overlooked the fact that Biden had a great deal of experience at being wrong, and they greatly downplayed Palin's executive experience, and her domestic policy expertise.

That said, I have to agree with the insurance policy theory. As for gravitas; do you mean like Gravi Tas the Clown?
