This is the beginning of the segment with questions from the audience. Biden gets really weird while answering the first question from the widow of the Sago mine disaster. He starts out on track, and then goes off on Pakistan...

The last question is a great one on healthcare.

1. too late to edit,

so I'll post the transcript of the healthcare question I mentioned:

QUESTION: After 34 years with LTV Steel I was forced to retire because of a disability. Two years later, LTV filed bankruptcy. I lost a third of my pension and my family lost their health care.

Every day of my life I sit at the kitchen table across from the woman who devoted 36 years of her life to my family and I can’t afford to pay for her health care. What’s wrong with America and what will you do to change it?
