Vintage!Biden Fix

YouTube is like Wikipedia in terms of sucking time out of one's life and not knowing how the hell you got to one page when you were looking at a completely unrelated page two hours ago. My findings:

1984 senatorial debate with opponent John Burris (Part 1/6) | link
Burris stares at Joe across a distance of about three feet from 3:00 to 5:00.
The entire time. No lie. I mean, I get why (♥__♥), but... creeper.

1986 Foreign Relations Committee debate over South Africa with Sec. of State George Shultz | link
Approx. 45 seconds of the famous 10-minute shouting match with Shultz.
Footage of Joe begins at 1:45, then tragically cuts off mid-angry-sentence. ;___;



1991 Senate confirmation hearing of Clarence Thomas (Part 1/4) | link
Footage of Joe begins at 1:25.
To be honest I found this kind of dry, but Joe gets to talk forever (he opposed this nomination).

Extra footage with minimum talking, allowing for maximum ogling (link):

March 10, 2009: Biden meets with NATO and EU officials; flirts shamelessly | link
@ 1:50 - "Oh, you can always go in my car. We can go in my car. Right now if you want, I'll take you home."
LOL OMG BODY LANGUAGE.

And because it feels wrong to post without a photo, have '90s!Joe, delivering a commencement address at Syracuse University School of Law in '94. He's coming back to speak this May.



Edit: The Clarence Thomas hearings were in 1991, not 1986! *facepalm* Fail.

→video, vintage, international affairs, mr. vice president
