 Joe Biden Mark My Words international Crisis if Obama Wins ABC News Matthew Jaffe Reports: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to stand by him as he makes tough, and possibly unpopular, decisions. Mark my words, the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. Were about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you dont remember anything else I said. Watch, were gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy. I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate, Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. And hes gonna need help. And the kind of help hes gonna need is, hes gonna need you - not financially to help him - were gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because its not gonna be apparent initially, its not gonna be apparent that were right. Not only will the next administration have to deal with foreign affairs issues, Biden warned, but also with the current economic crisis. Gird your loins, Biden told the crowd. Were gonna win with your help, God willing, were gonna win, but this is not gonna be an easy ride. This president, the next president, is gonna be left with the most significant task. Its like cleaning the Augean stables, man. This is more than just, this is more than think about it, literally, think about it this is more than just a capital crisis, this is more than just markets. This is a systemic problem we have with this economy. Do you think Biden is finished, no, no, no, my friends, he has just started: There are gonna be a lot of you who want to go, Whoa, wait a minute, yo, whoa, whoa, I dont know about that decision, Biden continued. Because if you think the decision is sound when theyre made, which I believe you will when theyre made, theyre not likely to be as popular as they are sound. Because if theyre popular, theyre probably not sound. Biden emphasized that the mountainous Afghanistan-Pakistan border is of particular concern, with Osama bin Laden alive and well and Pakistan bristling with nuclear weapons. You literally can see what these kids are up against, our kids in that region, Biden said in recalling when his helicopter was forced down due to a snowstorm there. The place is crawling with al Qaeda. And its real. We do not have the military capacity, nor have we ever, quite frankly, in the last 20 years, to dictate outcomes, he cautioned. Its so much more important than that. Its so much more complicated than that. And Barack gets it. After speaking for just over a quarter of an hour, Biden noticed the media presence in the back of the small ballroom. I probably shouldnt have said all this because it dawned on me that the press is here, he joked.
