In the final days of this campaign, President Obama and Vice President Biden are fighting for the same things they have always believed in and fought for: that this country cannot succeed without a growing, thriving middle class. President Obama and Vice President Biden will continue to share their vision to create an economy that’s built to last and highlight their concrete and specific second-term plan to continue restoring economic security to the middle class and avoid returning to the same policies that crashed the economy in the first place.
In Virginia, the Vice President will make the case that it’s time to finish what we’ve started, to educate our kids, train our workers, create new jobs, new energy, and new opportunity, to make sure that no matter who you are, where you come from, or how you started out, this is the country where you can make it if you try.
