I find it funny that he would bring up the violent crime and control act that makes it illegal to be a part of any gang. I would find the brotherhood of firefighting a gang in the true sense of the word. I guess it is now up to the government to decide whether or not these firfighters can be arrested.

I have been a fireman for 13 years. Thank god we are not in the IAFF. In NY & NJ, these idiots are starting to learn their lesson in supporting liberal assholes like John Corzine, Jim McGreevy,Spitzer Then 6 months later, they want them removed from office. NEVER support a democrat. It is the worst party for this country. Joe Biden is a dick head. He is an angry elitist in the elitist party. NY and NJ fireman are starting to wake up and distance themsleves from idiot democrats. IAFF is a joke.
An elitist? He's an Irish-Catholic with pretty much the least net worth of any other Senator! Try a different strategy if you want to smear this guy...
I have supported Joe Biden since his work in Bosnia. he is the one candidate with the experience to take over and put the American people first. His integrity cannot be questioned .Muriel
Hello everyone. I have one thing to say. If you support Joe Biden's policies, consider donating a mere $5 to his campaign fund. I have done so, and I set my payment up to recur every month. Please consider a marginal contribution to WINNING OUR COUNTRY BACK!
P.S. I have also changed my name on myspace to Joe Biden for President which I encourage others to do as well. Thank you.
This is just political rhetoric, "in every single critical moment in my life you guys have been with me." Sure. If Mr. Biden was speaking at a teachers union he'd give the same speech but just substitute "teachers" for "fire fighters". I'm fed up with politicians from either party who are so polished at knowing what people want to hear and simply play on their emotions with the correctly timed buzz words and catch phrases rehearsed in the mirror backstage.
I live in the UK, however, Senator Biden's section on the importance of the trade unions, encouraged me to renew my union membership. Biden is a great orator and a great man.
WOW, Being a Volunteer and Career Firefighter from Delaware and not in to politics. I was not sure about Mr. Bidens approach....I will certainly give motre thoughts to understanding and realism to our needs as Firefighters.
I believe Joe is for real. He's the only candidate so far that offers any real solution to end the conflict in Iraq and restore our prestige around the globe. Who else really stands by the middle class? Joe rides the Amtrak trains to work. He's a regular guy !
Everyone should watch this video... this guy is genuine, a real guy and the most knowledgable, experienced candidate of either party. 2 educations, from the street and from academia/the senate.BIDEN/RICHARDSON 2008!!
a bit slow at the start, but you really grabbed the audience on this one. my father was a firefighter for 35 years, and before that he served in WWII. Back then there were war bonds, and the goverment asked not just of the men fighting the war, but of every American. Even the rich. The difference between a war based on morality or national security, from a war based on money, is who is asked to sacrifice for that war.
I hope he does dominate the primmary debate, because he makes sense. I worry that we are in danger of electing a great fund raiser instead of a great president. Joe Biden could make a great president. Make room on the Biden bandwagon for me.
This is an absolutely excellent speech. He really deserves to be president, a part of me wishes he would run in 2016 or 2012 if a republican wins this year which I hope won't happen. This guy and Bill Richardson are the best candidates of either party

Terrific speech. I wish I'd seen this a year ago; I'd have been a Biden supporter all the way. Glad Obama chose him as his running mate.
