Former Defense Sec. Robert Gates: Biden “Has Been Wrong On Nearly Every Major Foreign Policy And National Security Issue Over Past Four Decades"
Biden has a near perfect record of being wrong on almost every major foreign policy question since being elected to the Senate in 1972.
He supported the nuclear freeze in the 1980s, opposed Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). He warned of a new arms race if the U.S. withdrew from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. He opposed aiding the Nicaraguan resistance. Biden was against Desert Storm that liberated Kuwait, against the troop surge in 2007 that defeated much of the insurgency. He also wanted to partition Iraq into 3 sections -Kurd, Sunni, Shia. The man has been wrong on everything and that's all before he became VP. The list goes on.
Gates: Obama And Hillary Clinton Admitted To Me Their Opposition To 2007 Iraq Surge Was “Political”…
Gates offers a catalogue of various meetings, based in part on notes that he and his aides made at the time, including an exchange between Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton that he calls “remarkable.”
He writes: “Hillary told the president that her opposition to the [2007] surge in Iraq had been political because she was facing him in the Iowa primary. . . . The president conceded vaguely that opposition to the Iraq surge had been political. To hear the two of them making these admissions, and in front of me, was as surprising as it was dismaying.”

Wild Thing's comment............
Gates is on a roll, I am glad he wrote his book. I am not a huge fan of Gates, but I do appreciate that he is finally speaking some truths about the horrible people in the WH ( Obama and Biden) .
The entire article is worth reading.
