Biden is completely ignorant about history!

Biden on Depression history

He was speaking about the role of the White House in a financial crisis.

"When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed," Biden told Couric. "He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'"

Only experimental TV's existed at that time....and Hoover was the president, not FDR!!!!!

Holy cow!

BTW, this was on network TV that he said this, speaking to Katie Couric. I'm sorry, but I have to believe that if it were Palin that had showed such a complete lack of knowledge about history it would be the #1 story right now.

But the sad thing is that most Americans are so ignorant amd lazy that they will just take what he said as truthful without any inclination to explore the truthfulness of his words.

Apparently Katie Couric is a moroon too, because she didn't catch it.

You'd think that it would be a good idea to take a basic U.S. history course before being vice president or before taking a multi million dollar job interviewing people on TV, which btw wasn't introduced to the public until the 1939 World"s fair.

And if Katie did know he screwed up she wouldn't say a word as she is a liberal lap dog and would do nothing to harm the Obama/Biden Socialist agenda.

Amen. She turned me off NBC way before she jumped ship.
