In it, he says the following about his job as vice president: “This is the first time I’ve had a boss in 37 years.”

Oh really?

Let’s review the vice president’s public service career. Biden was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1972, where he served continuously until he was elected vice president in 2008. First time with a boss, eh?

He had about 875,000 bosses back home in Delaware. They were the residents to whom Sen. Biden was responsible. Biden won re-election in 2002 with 58 percent of the vote. Surely those who voted for him in 2002 were his bosses. Indeed, so were those who voted against him. And even if a youngster who wasn’t old enough to vote chose to call then-Sen. Biden on the carpet for a policy decision, that person also was his boss.

OK, so he ran his Senate staff. He had a number of folks who reported to him. But he surely never was without a “boss” during his three decades-plus in the Senate.
