Sen. Biden Talks Education
May 16, 2007 09:34 AM
Senator Biden spoke to the AFT's executive council yesterday, unveiling a plan to make college more affordable.
The sometimes speechwriter in me enjoyed Biden's quotation of Seamus Heaney:
History says, Don't hope
on this side of the grave.
But then, once in a lifetime
the longed for tidal wave
of justice can rise up,
and hope and history rhyme.
So I'm filing that away for future use.
(Buried lede alert) Biden is one of several presidential candidates scheduled to speak to the AFT's executive council. Today's schedule includes: Sen. Clinton, former Sen. Edwards, Sen. Obama and Gov. Richardson.
