Vice President Joe Biden rolled into the Pasadena neighborhood Friday for a fundraiser at the home of John Kennedy, a noted city activist whose sister, Lena Kennedy, is a political consultant and a prominent fundraiser for President Obama.
Biden reportedly spent several hours at the home. The visit was unannounced and residents said they had no clue the VP was in town until he came riding down the street.
"It was basically a fundraiser for the president's campaign," said Dan Sherman, who attended the meeting. "Biden was basically talking about what the administration accomplished and how obstructive the Republicans have been."
Pasadena Police Chief Phillip Sanchez confirmed that his agency worked with the Secret Service over the last 48 hours to coordinate the visit.

Joe's gotta quit just barging in like he does. Especially late at night when people are sleeping.
