Vice President Biden and Democratic Candidate Bernie Sanders Meet Privately
Vice President Joe Biden -- who recently said that he would not run in 2016 -- met privately with Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders Thursday.
During a one hour conversation at the Vice President’s residence at the Naval Observatory in Washington D.C., the two former colleagues discussed campaign finance reform and a free education plan.
“I look forward to working with President Obama and Vice President Biden to tackle some of the major issues facing our country,” Sanders said in a statement to ABC News.
