I don't see how anyone can say Joe Biden was a positive.

You know, Richard Nixon said that VP candidate can't really help the presidential candidate, so main objective is to select a harmless one. It's not always, true, IMO (see LBJ in 1960, who stole Texas for JFK), but applicable too.

Biden certainly did not hurt Obama. In fact, he provided some help among blue collar voters and, for sure, added foreign policy experience.

Fixed.
