The New York Times: Reports on the different views of Vice - President Elect Joe Biden and Vice - President Dick Cheney on the role of the Vice - President. It seems Joe Biden wants down play his role, that sounds great, still think it was a mistake by Obama to select a classic liberal from the Senate. The difference between Biden and Cheney is simple, Biden has spend his career in the Senate, he can only see through the eyes of the Senate while Cheney was Chief of Staff to President Ford, the Defence Secretary for Bush 41 and of course Vice - President to Bush 43. Lets see how much time Obama really gives Biden, have my doubts that Biden would have chosen the National Security team chosen by Obama. I think Biden just might have the worse time as VP, as a powerful Senator he had to be heard by the President, Obama can send him on every diplomatic junket to keep him out of the way. What about Caroline Kennedy for VP in 2012 to Obama.
