When we have a Congress with the worst approval rating in history and a Congress that has accomplished NOTHING in 2yrs(is that Bush's fault too??) who the hell cares about a VP
The VP role is supposed to be the one that actually gets dirty. They are the one that travels aiding foreign policy, initiating programs, coordinating issues, meeting with leaders, assisting in policy development, speaking to the public, both at home and abroad, attending planning meetings, making appearances at events. The VP role is very important. America has forgotten that because the current VP has spent eight years in his basement in his underwear playing stratego.
