Joe Biden has had a problem with PLAGIARISM since Law School, a real problem with using other people's
work without giving them credit.


He even plagiarized Neil Kinnock's life now, that takes the cake, LOL!

This is why he was never able to continue with one of his campaigns for the Presidency! Thank God!

But, do we want him getting in through the back door?

So, he is also a LIAR. And it shows a lack of judgment on Obamas part, for choosing him.

But, then again, Obama being a liar himself, it all makes sense.

The problem with Joe Bidens plagiarism is that he is just a heartbeat away from the Presidency

Do we really want Joe Biden as President, when he does not even have a clue what state he is in??

Joe Biden's plagiarism problem
Thomas Lifson



Political insiders have long known about Joe Biden getting caught plagiarizing almost word-for-word a speech given by British Labour politician Neil Kinnock. In fact, that killed his 1988 presidential campaign.


But a more serious plagiarism charge has been out there even longer - that he plagiarized in law school. That is something that can get you thrown out if proven.


Sweetness & Light remembers this 1987 New York Times article:



Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., a Democratic Presidential candidate, was accused of plagiarism while in his first year at Syracuse University Law School, academic officials familiar with Mr. Biden's record said today. [....]


According to the people familiar with the record of the 44-year-old Senator from Delaware, he was called before the disciplinary body at the law school during his first year because of charges that he had committed plagiarism on a paper. Mr. Biden entered the school in 1965 and graduated in 1968.


CBS News tonight quoted an aide to Mr. Biden as saying he had been exonerated. However, an academic official said Mr. Biden had been found guilty, "threw himself on the mercy of the board" and promised not to repeat the offense. This, according to the official, persuaded the board to drop the matter and allow Mr. Biden to remain in law school. Mr. Biden's office declined to clarify the circumstances surrounding the case, saying the Senator had insisted on handling the matter himself at the news conference. [....]


Unsurprisingly, the New York Times article actually downplays the Kinnock plagiarism. For Mr. Biden didn’t just plagiarize his words, he plagiarized his life.


From a concomitant article in the (FL) St. Petersburg Times:




Biden’s way with words now seems to be a liability

JOHN HARWOOD
Sep 20, 1987



… But it was just last month that Biden appropriated an inspirational speech by British Labor leader Neil Kinnock. Kinnock told of ancestors who played football after long days underground in the mines, who recited poetry poetry and paved the way for him to become the first in his family to attend college.


When he saw a tape of Kinnock in action, Biden said Thursday, “it was a connect. I mean, I could tell how that man felt. That’s how I feel.”




So he used it - changing the names but little else - at a debate last month in Iowa. But instead of crediting Kinnock, he told the audience he thought of it on the way to the debate…


Biden acknowledged Kinnock’s language didn’t fit his family perfectly. His father was in used car sales, his grandfather was a mining engineer. But he had been told and “assumed” that other relatives had worked in the mines. And, “to make it clear,” members of his mother’s family had, indeed, been to college…


Archived Blog: Joe Biden's plagiarism problem


Joe Biden has a real problem with plagarism.

He plagarized in Law School & asked for mercy from the school board.

Yet, in 1967 he lifted passages from a speech by Robert Kennedy.

A short phrase from the 1961 inaugural address of John F. Kennedy.

And in 2 years prior, to have done the same with a 1976 passage from Hubert H. Humphrey.



A few days later, Biden's plagiarism incident in law school came to public light.Video was also released showing that when earlier questioned by a New Hampshire resident about his grades in law school, Biden had falsely stated that he had graduated in the "top half" of his class, that he had attended law school on a full scholarship, and that he had received three degrees in college.

He had in fact earned a single B.A. with a double major in history and political science, had received a half scholarship to law school based on financial need with some additional assistance based in part upon academics, and had graduated 76th of 85 in his law school class.



All of the lies, plagiarism, videos, blogs about this are online, I hope people do not forget this!
It is all very scary

Trust me............most 0bama supporters don't have the vaguest idea what plagiarism is. That would be a fun question to ask the 'man on the street'. Like Leno's 'Jaywalking'.

Come to think of it, few of them would even know who Joe Biden is.

Let's assume that Biden actually is a serial plagiarist. How does that make him dangerously unfit to be "a heartbeat away" from the presidency?

ETA: I'm not voting for his ticket this time. I just find it a little amusing that this is a bigger deal than, say, flip-flopping on abortion, gay rights, health care, etc.

The Declaration of Independence is a nice pieces of plagiarism on the part of Thomas Jefferson. Pretty common practice in politics, which should hardly surprise anyone.

Why Biden's plagiarims shouldn't be forgotten. - Slate Magazine

This is an excellent piece on this topic. It should have been taken more seriously by the MSM, and refects poorly on Pres. Obama's judgement for having chosen Biden as VP.

Its an awesome article!
Thank you!!!


The sad thing, is that people act like its no big deal
it sort of tells you something about the character of the American people

It seems like, its OK that Obama lies to the American people regarding the Benghazi fiasco, its OK that the
Vice President is a professional plagiarist

And that he also has a drinking problem! Sad.....
