you re right, it is a mission impossible because that doesn t align with the person we ve seen on camera for last how many months. it s a big wasted opportunity and it fell apart because of the plagiarism scandal. i agree, she is a compelling figure. it makes her in some ways more mysterious. we re going to bring you that speech a little later today. up next, a sneak peek into our reporter s notebooks including a brand-new poll of latino voters. what could it signal for the future, not of this race but the republican party? re you can earn bonus cash back to a few places. .and those places keep changing every few months. the quicksilver card from capital one doesn t do any of that. with quicksilver you earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on every purchase, everywhere. leave complicated behind. what s in your wallet?
united states. to get to the vice presidency, but if you go all the way back to his first campaign, we don t remember it as a very successful campaign. he dropped out before the iowa caucuses with the whole plagiarism scandal. joe biden was politically hot and moving up in the polls before that happened. he has a reputation now for being a bit long-winded. he was known back then as the best on the democratic side. he was raising big money for the campaign and getting people very excited. there was a clear chance for him in 1988 had he won that nomination back then. in 2004 he walked up to the brink of the candidacy and almost jumped in during the summer of 2003. almost the exact same words from then, we just don t have enough time. that s what he said back in 2003 and is saying again today. i think i remember when he was picked for the ticket in 2008, he had run for president in 2008. there was no room for him in the race and he didn t get 1% in iowa. that was the brink of a
jumped in four years later. today i announce my candidacy for president of the united states of america. that campaign crumbled apart with a plagiarism scandal. the presidential campaign claims another victim as senator joseph biden drops out of the race. he recovered his reputation, never topped eyes the white house. he was the first one out of the gate in 2008, announcing his campaign three years before that election. i know i m supposed to tell you, you know, i m not sure, but if in fact i think that i have a clear shot at winning the nomination then i m going to seek the nomination. he was overshadowed by bigger stars and went nowhere in the primaries, only to catch the break of a lifetime that summer.
the question i think needs to be asked though, is how much of these numbers are because of people s sympathy towards him after what happened and how much of them are real because, remember, you can go back to anita hill, you can go back to his comments about president obama being clean cut and articulate, about indian-americans in delaware. there s ample fodder for remember, this is a long time ago but he was drif ven out of the 1988 presidential race in 1987 because of a plagiarism scandal. there is a lot there. the answer, luke, is i don t know how much, you know, what s good will and what ser hard vote for biden. what we do know is even aside from the sympathy which i think is quite clearly there among democrats is that we know that the candidate who is thinking about running is always the most popular. i always say it s like the backup quarterback. you know what i mean? the guy sort of not the guy out there slinging interceptions, we know this well in washington,
anyone working in a company that really is like the one described in the times would be crazy to stay. i know i would leave such a company. former white house spokesman jay carney now works for amazon and is discrediting the story. this is an incredibly compelling place to work, a place where people are excited to come to work. and i think the fundamental flaw in the story is the suggestion that any company that had the kind of culture that the new york times wrote about and sort of a cruel, darwinian or dickensian kind of atmosphere in the workplace could survive and thrive in today s marketplace. so it looks like the times, which was firing editors, is losing money, has a reputation as having horrible morale had a plagiarism scandal. how they treat women. paid women less there. now is attacking a company that s innovating and one of the most successful organizations around? no one is forcing people to
