President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden worked together for eight years in the Oval Office. One would assume that both men grew to know each other intimately.

Prior to the South Carolina primary, when the media had placed Biden’s campaign on life support, Obama did not endorse his former vice president. As the Democratic field narrowed to two candidates, Obama continued to remain silent. Only when Biden was the last man standing and he had no other choice did the president’s endorsement finally arrive.

This makes me wonder how confident Obama truly is regarding his past running mate’s ability to lead our nation.
