Biden's Foreign Policy

Another great article from the McClatchy newspapers, this one looks Biden's foreign policy views.

...Biden, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee since 1975, has often seemed to be ahead of the curve on issues from aid to former Soviet states in the early 1990s to U.S. involvement in the Balkans.

Ideas from his seemingly endless cache haven't always looked good in retrospect, however. As Iraq descended into chaos in mid-2006, he co-authored a plan to divide the country into three semi-autonomous regions with a limited central government. Leading Iraqi politicians condemned the plan, and it generated little enthusiasm among his fellow Democrats...
