Biden was a candidate for the 1988 Democratic Presidential nomination, but his campaign was derailed when he was caught using plagiarized sections from a British politician's speech in his own speeches, including first-person descriptions of the Brit's life that were not applicable to Biden's life. Biden said he had simply forgotten to mention that he was quoting someone else. Months later, after complaining of recurring headaches, he underwent surgery for two near-fatal brain aneurysms. He is expected to be a candidate for President again in 2008.
