Joe Biden - "We're not supporting clean coal," Biden can be seen telling a voter. "No coal plants here in America."
That position would be at odds with Obama's. The Illinois senator has supported clean coal efforts in his home state and said in his acceptance speech at last month's Democratic convention that as president he would invest in the technology. It's politically significant, because coal remains a key industry in the western part of Virginia, in Ohio, and elsewhere.
Joe Biden - Interview with Katie Couric on 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.'"
Fact - Franklin Roosevelt didn’t become president in 1929 during the crash. He won the 1932 election and took office in 1933, largely because of the 1929 crash and the incompetent protectionist policies that transformed it into a Great Depression.
Fact - Televison was still an experimental medium and wouldn’t be introduced to the public for at least another decade.
