From Manuel Miranda’s <a href="

Joe Biden of Delaware. As I noted in a previous column, Mr. Biden has a lot to gain or lose from his role. He will ask Mr. Roberts about the commerce clause of the Constitution and be downright angry that the Supreme Court has dared to strike down some laws he has sponsored. Mr. Biden graduated near the bottom of his law school class, and he will show it in two ways: He will spend more time posing his questions than listening to the answers, and he will mention terms like “constitution in exile” as if he were a scholar.
