True..Biden is less elitist than Obama--that's one of the reasons he was chosen. However, voters no longer want to hear the same old class warfare rants from Democrats--they want concrete plans for lower energy prices and job creation.

Just one of the Biden houses in the compound is estimated at $1.3 Million.....there are at least two houses there....or more? He did pretty well since he has spent his entire working life in the Senate. His father was a working man, and most probably couldn't afford the house that ole Joe has....

May I see a link on that?

He is the least wealthy of anybody in the US Senate.

Biden's father might have sold used cars at one time, but I find it very telling that nowhere is it reported that Joe Biden's father moved on and became a realtor with Patterson-Schwartz, the largest realtor in Delaware.

Biden attended a prestigious Catholic day and boarding school, Archmere Academy. Today Archmere is a day school and the tuition is $18,450 plus books, fees, and uniforms. Tuition was proportionately the same when Biden attended Archmere. Not a tuition "working class" families can afford.

When Obama talks about the "working class", is he using Karl Marx's definition?
