WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden told the U.S. Military Academy's class of 2016 on Saturday that greater diversity, including more women and openly gay soldiers, will strengthen the country's armed forces.
"Having men and women together in the battlefield is an incredible asset, particularly when they're asked to lead teams in parts of the world with fundamentally different expectations and norms," Biden said in his speech at a graduation ceremony at Michie Stadium on the West Point grounds along the Hudson River.

This “Diversity is Strength” BS has got to be challenged. Putting women in combat weakens the unit cohesion at many levels. Putting an openly gay officer in charge of a platoon — sh— I don’t know what happens there if stuff starts going bad...
It's the modern motto of godless liberalism.
Diversity = Perversity
*Spit*
Who are we fighting?
Xena, Warrior Princess?
Penthesilea and the Amazons?
The Theban Sacred Band?
Who are we fighting against that sends women out onto the battlefield?
Our fighting women (and gays) may be impressive, but what foreign culture is going to be impressed or terrified of them or likely to throw down their arms because of them?
It also means mediocrity, excellence is not in their vocabulary, like victory.
Biden is dumber than a bag of hammers bump for later....
Biden is certifiably NUTZ!!
I believe he is merely pandering. One thing for sure, he has no evidence whatsoever to believe what he is spouting.
No, it's nonsensical, typical lib-speak.
WHA? Uncle joe can use a GPS??????
what'd ya wanna bet he makes General in record time?
So sez boffo the clown
” Dorkbama the Muslim Dick”
Why did Obama cross the road?
His dick was in the chicken!
Of course he’s black. This is almost like a political appointment.
I wonder if he wants to become a ranger too. He’s already a rump ranger.
Sure, if we’re fighting 3rd graders.
It reads like some 22 year old speechwriter using a thesaurus.
Specifically how?
Let’s prove women in combat will improve the military...send a battalion of women into Iraq and see how they do. QED.
Why do you suppose everyone in the military wears the same clothes? Eats the same meals? Carries the same weapons? Speaks the same language? Because there is strength in UNITY, not diversity. A unit is stronger when it is UNIFORM, not diverse.
Diversity is the enemy of unit cohesion. You can't function efficiently if you have everyone doing his own thing.
And nobody ever charged up a hill in the face of withering gunfire, planted a flag, and yelled "Divided we stand!"
No doubt he'll be a 5 star general by the time he's 30.
