From RealClearPolitics, about the moderate Democrat and former Virginia governor Douglas Wilder's advice to U.S. President Barack Obama regarding his 2012 ticket: "'You go back to the reasons that Joe Biden was put on the ticket in the very first instance. It was supposedly because he had the great experience. He had been there for years. He had been Foreign Relations chair. He had been chairman of the Judiciary and supposedly knew the workings of the Senate. Now, has that worked to the president's better interest or has it taken away from the president? And the gaffe is not just a question of will Joe Biden make a gaffe and incidentally I like him. Personally, I think he is a fine fellow,' Former Gov. Douglas Wilder (D-VA) said on FOX News. 'But, Is he the person you want in place? You know, you always hear that thing. Suppose something would happen to the president, who would be in charge? The Vice President. Joe Biden? You have got to be kidding today when you say the Taliban's not our enemy,' Wilder told Neal Cavuto."
