Joe Biden
Doesn’t This Guy Look Like Obama?!?

Joe Biden is catching heat online after pausing a speech at Syracuse University to say a Trustee is a doppelganger for Barack Obama … and it’s all on video.
Check out this clip from Biden’s speech Tuesday at his alma mater … he’s on stage for the unveiling of his portrait at the University’s College of Law when things take an unexpected turn. The former Commander-in-Chief suddenly calls Syracuse Board Chairman Jeffrey Scruggs up to the podium and tells the crowd Jeffrey looks a lot like none other than … President Obama.
The chittering sounds from the crowd lead us to believe that the comment was laughed off … but the audience on social media is not as forgiving.
Jeffrey is kind of a big shot … not only is he the Chairman of the Board at Syracuse, he is also a managing director at Goldman Sachs … but it looks like he wasn’t too offended by Biden comparing him to Barack, at least in this clip.
