Joe Biden is an original founding Democratic Leadership Council member. He is a Third Way Neoliberal New Democrat. Make no mistake, Biden will disappoint you with his milquetoast Grand Bargaining, Catfood Commissioning ways. There is nothing surprising about the man, unless you’re a political neophyte. If you vote for Biden, don’t complain about being stressed out that Biden might sell you down the river in the Democratic Party’s name for four to eight years, like compromising Medicare/Medicaid or Social Security for some Republican hostage taking silliness. It WILL happen . “The landslide 1984 Presidential election defeat spurred "centrist" Democrats to action, and the Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) was formed. The DLC, an unofficial party organization, played a critical role in moving the Democratic Party's policies to the "center" of the American political spectrum. Prominent Democratic politicians such as: Senators Al Gore and Joe Biden (both future Vice Presidents) participated in DLC affairs prior to their candidacy for the 1988 Democratic Party nomination.” en.wikipedia.org/...
