Joe Biden and VAWA

The Obama campaign has released a new video about the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and Joe Biden’s vital role in ensuring the legislation was passed. It’s good stuff.

I can’t pretend to be the world’s biggest Joe Biden fan, but for all of his other flaws, this is something for which I feel he does deserve our respect. For more on Joe Biden’s commitment to the issue of violence against women, see this post by Erin at BlogHer.

  1. Wow. I never watch Youtube clips. They bore me. When I’m online, I’d rather read. But I watched this from beginning to end. I have to say, it’s not just that the content is good, it’s that it is technically perfect. Or almost – I would have liked to see some title or identification of the two women that speak in it.

  2. I would have liked to see some title or identification of the two women that speak in it.

    One of them (around 0:22 seconds) is identified as Bonnie Campbell, Former Director, Office on Violence Against Women and then the video identifies the other woman (around 0:29 seconds) with her name and location.

  3. Interesting video. How come that young woman didn’t know about VAWA when it had been law for nearly 10 years? The creepy ex would have done time for vandalizing her property and stalking.
