12. Biden is really close on the million mark.

I don't think his net worth is in the millions. He has made a modest living and his only real money maker has been the release of his last book. It wasn't all that. His pension is pretty sweet as well. It appears Sanders has hit one percenter status on annual earnings for a couple of years. We will find out.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
