Led the crowd in chants of “Uncle Joe has got to go!”
At least three helicopters buzzed the skies above an eastern Ohio car dealership, the site of JOE BIDEN’s campaign speech.
Many local coal miners showed up at JOE BIDEN’s speech. Kept blocks away under the guise of “security,” was the vice president aware they were there?

A small crowd of the dependably-supportive were invited to hear the vice president speak. Everyone else was kept blocks away from the venue.
Some of the protestors had a good view of where the vice president was to speak; it was far, far away from where they registered their dissatisfaction with the administration’s coal policies. Man of the people, ‘Regular Joe’ Biden, didn’t acknowledge that their presence.
The Secret Service was on the scene early with a heavy presence.
