Biden was chosen because he's a retard that's easy to make fun of and an easy distraction. It's just like W Bush, he acted like a retard and liberals made fun of him all the time, while Powell, Rumsfeld, etc all had a free for all with neoconservative war. They are doing a lot of the tricks they did to conservatives after 9/11 lately, but they do them to liberals instead and conservatives have become the rebel group.
