    When Obama was in power Biden just seemed to be the smiling old white uncle that had a couple funny cameos on TV, from my recollection.

      Yeah I don’t understand what people expect from a VP. I don’t remember a VP ever being big news for as long as I’ve been alive.

      Oh, wait, Cheney. Yeah, maybe a VP being out of the spotlight is a good thing.

        Teddy was big as VP, but that’s about it. They spend a lot of their days in the Senate in meetings to help push through legislation and breaking ties whenever they happen.
