Matthews: Let me ask you. Do you think McCain is seriously - and
I mean this professionally - flirting with the idea of accepting
a second place on the ticket with John Kerry, and creating a fusion
ticket to run against the President.

Biden: .....I think that this is time for unity in this country,
and maybe it is time to have a guy like John McCain - a Republican
- on the ticket with a guy he does like. They do get along. And
they don't have fundamental disagreements on major policies.

Matthews: Would you support that ticket ... for President?

Biden: I would. Yeah. If John Kerry said that's who he wanted,
and McCain - I'd encourage McCain to say yes. I doubt whether John
would do it. I doubt whether John McCain would do it. But, you
know, we need some unity here, man. The red states and the blue
states - we got to have something to coalesce around here.

Matthews: Well hearing you now Senator, he may say yes. Thank
you very much. Senator Joe Biden of Delaware. Ranking Democrat on
Foreign Relations.

Biden also claims that foreign leaders have told him personally
that they want a change of administration...
