Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."
"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. "And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."
So, what Biden is saying is, trust the dear leader...he knows all and sees all...What he is really saying is that even he is not confident in Barack Obama. Obama is a horrendous novice on international issues, and Joe Biden has foreign policy experience in being WRONG (missile defense, Cold War, Gulf War I, partitioning Iraq, etc.). What could he mean?
Some such as Glenn Beck have speculated on economic crises, that Obama and Co. might go with other leaders like Sarkozy who are talking about one world currency.
Others are speculating that Obama is talking about bringing back the draft. However, I think one of the most ominous things is regarding an attack on Israel. I think Obama and Co. would hold off on supporting Israel if they are attacked. That has grave consequences. Bill Kristol is speculating Obama will be tested by a foreign dictator.
Also, this shows another thing. Both candidates are being briefed on national security issues now, as the Bush admin does not want them to be behind when whoever wins comes into office. So, here is Joe Biden, basically blabbing to anyone about top level briefings.....Is this the type of walking security risk we want in the White House?
However, Biden has been consistent. Obama is not ready to handle the presidency....
