While it didn't come from a direct quote from Joe Biden, it's noteworthy:

One small step at a time...

It's more than just a small step, it's pretty major, when the vice-president publically take side with transgenders as a civil rights issue. I hope it leads to something concrete, although economy and job creation will be the major issue in the next mandate. But it sure seems like a good idea to vote Obama-Biden this time around.
Great post, Dominic!

If this is true, it's terrific. But I have to day i do take it with a pinch of salt.
