I agree, at the time, I was like, really, but it ended up being a great choice and they do have a great deal of admiration for each other and will be friends for life. Other Presidents haven't had the close relationship with their VP like Obama.You think it's him? A lot of people do. Honestly I find him so disappointing, but I felt the same way about Biden 8 years ago, I was like are you kidding me!? And you know what, that was a great pick in retrospect and they made really awesome partners for 8 years. So who am I to say.
