Biden was knocked out of the race by <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Joe_Biden#Presidential_campaigns\" target=\"_blank\">allegations of plagiarism<\/a>. There were also earlier allegations of the same in law school.

He was one of the youngest senators in U.S. history, becoming a member at 30, the minimum age. So he&#8217;s got some mileage on his clock and is definitely what you would call a Beltway insider. Shortly after entering the Senate his wife and children were killed in a car accident; only two of the kids survived, making full recoveries. This seems to be relevant in that extreme trials tend to bring out a person&#8217;s humanity.<\/p>\n<p>So when we think that losing a wife and child are a comment on his character, remember there is a pretty serious question down there &#8212; how is he going to treat people once he has irrevocable power? This is what we are trying to figure out.<\/p>\n<p>I jokingly call him Senator from the Corporations. Take a look at your credit card statement. The bank is probably based in Delaware, which has lenient tax laws and hence a large constituency of companies. Biden was instrumental in passing the bankruptcy reform law in 2005, and has long associations with a major holding company of credit card banks, called MNBA. The problem here is that it took credit card debt out of the bankruptcy provisions. And that debt is killing America; and it&#8217;s a habit that was pushed on us like an addictive drug.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.planetwavesweekly.com\/resources\/chart44.html\">Looking at his noon chart<\/a>, we see a quadruple Scorpio &#8212; Mars, Mercury, Sun and Venus. This makes him charming, if nothing else. I knew this chart reminded me of someone, and I just remembered who it is &#8212; Charles Manson. Charlie has a Sun-Venus conjunction in Scorpio, plus Jupiter and Mercury in Scorpio. Charlie&#8217;s chart is, however, considerably more troubling &#8212; Mars conjunct Neptune in Virgo says it all (methodical and delusional in equal measure) &#8212; but what that Sun-Venus-Scorpio gives both of these guys is a kind of inexplicable aura of charisma.<\/p>\n<p>Because this is a noon chart, we don&#8217;t know where his Moon is; like everyone else associated with the 2008 presidential election, his birth time doesn&#8217;t exist (I am still suspect of Obama&#8217;s birth time, despite the release of a birth certificate recently).<\/p>\n<p>Using noon puts his Moon at 2+ Taurus, so if he was born during the day or the evening of Nov. 20 we have someone with a Taurus Moon; if he was born overnight or early in the morning, it&#8217;s a late degree Aries Moon. Hmmm, taking a guess &#8212; he&#8217;s had the same job for 35 years? He endured the loss of his wife and child, a double brain aneurysm, and allegations that he&#8217;s a plagiarist? He&#8217;s probably got a Taurus Moon, which makes him a Full Moon birth; which means that we really don&#8217;t know the guy.<\/p>\n<p>A Full Moon birth is about as polarized as one&#8217;s personality can get; you seem to stand between two entirely different worlds. We all have a solar self and a lunar self, and the relationship between the Sun and the Moon tells us something about it. Beneath the guy&#8217;s smooth exterior is a lot of conflict. Not a little, a lot. Now by the time you&#8217;re in your 60s, you&#8217;ve worked out a bunch of this, with any luck, but the guy has no shortage of instability.<\/p>\n<p>However, I will concede that I trust him to be vice president more than I do Dick Cheney. So grading on a curve, he gets an A-minus. Being a longtime Washington insider is probably good for the country. It would make him less inclined to declare martial law, but then so, too, would the federal budget.<\/p>\n<p>As for news of the alleged murder plot against Obama, it sounds like an episode of South Park. Best to leave it that way. (One of the guys allegedly said they were going to shoot the candidate from a distance of 750 yards, just under half a mile.) A long shot. We need to be attentive to something a little more point blank.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Planet Waves\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.planetwavesweekly.com\/resources\/images\/sign_white.jpg?resize=185%2C45&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Eric Francis\" vspace=\"5\" width=\"185\" height=\"45\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Friend and Reader: SO WHO is Joe Biden?
